A bold claim, and not worth anything without proof, which is impossible
to provide because you cannot predict the future.

> JavaScript running on in browser or mobile phone can't connect to

That's simply not true. There are JavaScript libraries like SmtpJS, a
low-level TCP/UDP socket API, and more.

Please do your research before stating obvious falsehoods.
