Okay, I messed it up. Recently released 1.14.0 still had some artefacts from SMS handling cleanup and it should be fixed now. Besides this, experimental (not tested) support for OBEX on Siemens phones has been added and Motorola users should be finally able to get their messages. Full list of changes:

• Configurable MySQL socket path.
• More extensive SMS PDU parser tests.
• Experimental support for OBEX in Siemens.
• Support for listing messages using CMGL (bug #408).
• Parse T630 reply on CPBR (bug #420).
• Fix buffer overflows in PDU decoder.
• Properly catch invalid PDU data received from phone.
• Handle more OBEX error codes.
• Handle vCards from Yahoo and Evolution (bug #424).

I will try to stabilise to 1.15.0 as soon as possible, what effectively means feature freeze from now, so this testing series should be shorter than usual.

Today, when walking through some Wammu/Gammu bugs, I came to conclusion that the spam changed some people to behave insane. The email field in bug tracker is there to allow developer to contact you, for example when he makes a fix for issue you reported and wants you to test it. Entering addresses as ones at TrashMail which will vanish soon (the bug I'm talking about is two days old, what I feel is good enough reaction time from my side), will not help anybody.

Thank you firebird76 (whatever your real name is) for realizing how people are stupid.

PS: I use Mantis bug tracker, which I believe does not expose email addresses to anyone besides privileged users.
