If someone IMs you offline you get it through email, but it doesn't work vice versa.

In 1.3 you can reply to IM emails directly, but I think you can only reply, not send out new.

It appears in 1.3 that you get a special temporary "reply UUID" if someone sends you an IM while you're offline and you have your IMs set to forward to your email address.
This is done to prevent the whole spam problem from accumulating in the default environment.
However, what is interesting is that you'll be able to have an actual "mailbox" that can recieve email at a fixed email address of UUID@lsl.[colo.]secondlife.com. You'll probably even be able to wear this as an attachment.
Presumably, if this address starts to get spam for some reason, you could just copy it to a new object, which creates a new UUID, and thwarts any spam.
I think this is a good system, since it will be impossible for spammers to zero in on us, becuase as soon as they do, we just copy the object and start using the new UUID.
Basically this puts the "default" behavior so that it's hard for spam to accumulate, but if you want to take the initiative, you can "staticify" an address to initiate communication with you, but at your own responsibility and risk of having your mail queue overrun.
