Thanks Marijn!
SurgeMail Version 5.3i-11, Built Jul 6 2011 13:26:16, Platform Windows
(Surgeweb Enabled)
The standard AJAX interface is now usable on an iPhone, although the
address picker dropdown is very finicky and saving to draft loses the
FROM address.
Now we can use secure webmail where secure IMAP is blocked.
Note: only tested with Safari browser.
