Not in client-side Javascript.

I say client-side because if I answer no then someone will point out
that server side JScript or Javascript can send mail.

Yes, which is very annoying. ;-)
I know a lot of developers, but 0 who use javascript serverside.

Anybody in here who uses JS serverside? Just curious.

Sure, under ASP jscript can be more handy making functions having regex
manipulation or UTC time. [VBscript cannot find the serverside UTC-offset]

I use it also porting ready made clientside JS functions to serverside, or
just for the fun of it.

======================

However, under cscript or wscript JS is also very neat.

Actually, I should correct myself and say a simple "No" and let them say
"Server side can" so I can reply back and say "No, server side
J(ava)Script cant, it tells the mail server to send mail" :)

Evertjan is the only one I know for sure but there are surely others
that use JScript. To me, Server Side Javascript is as good as dead. If
it wasn't before AOL bought it, it surely is now.
