this changes everything (you asked a generic question and you got a
generic answer): the phone number that you see is what is actually
written in the standard part of the SMS by your phone

> So what can I do? Get another phone? ;)

either you reverse engineer the non standard part of the SMS (you can
use --getfile the retrieve the raw message, see the debug output of
--getsms or the source of nk6510.c for path names) or you get another
phone (not a Nokia Series 40 3rd edition or later and not a Series 60
3rd edition or later)
