I use Gmail as an autoresponder and its a BEAST. As for FB killing off GMAIL, I highly doubt it.

Installed base -- Gmail has a huge installed base that would be a bitch to migrate
Self Interest -- Adwords is getting pimped hard on GMAIL because advertisers love to target click opportunities as people are THINING of a particular topic (ie., when you're emailing about a particular topic). This gives Google a massive incentive to keep improving GMAIL
FB has to play catch up to Gmail's innovations -- Gmail has several years of innovation under its belt from the labs feature to active mail to conversation style mail
