Unironically I find that repeating what your correspondent said but as a question shows your engagement, especially when they said something more expressive.

    Something they'd expect you to react to more vividly, like something surprising, touching or shocking.

    I like to see I'm being listened to, and this kind of repetition can be a sign of that. But it can easily turn into a mechanical repeating if used carelessly.
