Ah, bots. I thought you were talking about something completely different. (I'm 
not sure what "run/launch a JavaScript app directly from the client" means here;
 bots typically run standalone / implement the client themselves.)

Using a bot as a mailer seems a bit janky to me, but I'm probably missing someth
ing. We've already got systems in place for moving packets around. Is the goal t
o use Telegram's network for mail transfers, eg. my bot exchanges mail with your
 bot, with each BBS/node running its own bot?
