  http://jassean.wordpress.com/ is not using version 3.6.0. If you are talking about a different blog, you need to be at WordPress.ORG for support with that version of the software.

  That means your site is not hosted here on wp.COM.
  You may be using WordPress.ORG software and paying someone to host your site.
  For help you need to ask in the wp.ORG forums:
  http://wordpress.org/support/

  Here are details about the different flavors of WordPress:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Your third link is also not hosted here on WordPress.com. See the links I provided above.

  It’s not a battle, it’s only that our platform is different and in this forum we provide answers for wp.com software. Many of us volunteers don’t have any experience with wp.org.

  Lots of folks are confused about the 2 platforms being different, to I’ll say you are welcome and I hope you can get your answer quickly.

  So to have the function of replying via email in comment, i should use the hosting here in wp.com?

  NO. In order to get that function working on your site, you have to ask in the forums at wordpress.org.

  I don’t know.
  The site I administer on wp.org dose not have a reply by email function but that could be theme dependent. Or there may be a plugin for that on .org.

  But here on .com there is not “reply by email” in the comments. We can add a contact form for private emails in posts, pages, and sidebars.

  I just use contact forms on the site I administer, but not in comments. (well, comments are closed on the page-based site I work with)
