use smsd with the file backend;
look at the "THE FILE MODULE" paragraph in man smsd for details

there have been reports in the past about phones needing a reboot after some 
days of use; there have been improvements in FBUS initialization recently 
that might help cure these problems, so use libgnokii from CVS (0.6.23cvs), 
search this mailing list to see if your phone has alreadly been used by 
someone and do your tests before writing any substantial amount of code
