Problem with reading SMS from 8310

[David Andel]

Hi

I did not get any reply to my mail a few days ago, so I am trying to 
figure out more by myself.

Unfortunately, I don't get why gnokii is refusing my getsms commands. I 
think they are compliant to the man page.
According to 'gnokii --help' the syntax is:
gnokii --getsms memory_type start [end] [-f file] [-F file] [-d]

Ok, I've tried all of these without success:

  502  gnokii --get-sms IN 0 -f inbox-30.8.04
  503  gnokii --get-sms IN 1 -f inbox-30.8.04
  504  gnokii --get-sms IN 0
  505  gnokii --get-sms IN 1

Just in case gnokii is not "recognizing" 8310:

  507  gnokii --get-sms ME 1
  508  gnokii --get-sms ME 0
  509  gnokii --get-sms SM 1

Well, every one of these generated only the output:
GNOKII Version 0.6.1
Use '/usr/lib/gnokii/gnokii --help' for usage information.

What is wrong, please?

Since xgnokii crashes when attempting to get sms's from my phone, I have 
to try using gnokii on the command line, in the hope that I'll get some 
informative error messages...

Any hint is greatly appreciated!

Cheers,
David
