then add some code where emails are sent in vb and detect any email address that's pure numerics - if it's pure numerics without an '@' then you send the message via the fb api so it winds in the user's fb inbox. (and you conveniently give then a link in the email to your site to a screen which allows them to update their email address on your site so that you can send to them directly in the future instead of thru the fb inbox) - see... that wasn't so hard.

any chance I can pay you to do this for me?

i agree, i miswrote. i meant if he "commissioned it" and thus owns all rights to it. then it is his to freely distribute or charge for.
