Hi,
  Sorry for the delay in replying - somehow I managed to miss this mail.

  You basically need to run shr-settings, click on others ->
domains->messages and change the default backend to sqlite-messages. All
messages sent/receive after this will be shown in the internal app.

  The third line shows the cell broadcast info transmitted by your gsm
provider. The seq is like so
channel no - <message>.
  You can click on 'Configure' in the toolbar, and in the window that open
scroll down and select the channels you want to subscribe to and toggle
showing the channel no on/off.

  Thanks. But that effort didn't go anywhere. I got stuck reading copious
amount of documentation on dbus but got no single example about how to
implement a simple service using dbus/e-dbus. Well, maybe I didn't put in
enough effort since there were other things to do.
  If someone can point me in the right direction - this is something I
intend doing.
  BTW, the birthday and anniversary details in contacts is supposed to
automatically provide a reminder (configurable from preferences) 'x' no of
days in advance - provided I can get alarms (which wake up the phone from
suspend) and the notification dbus service working. Both have been pending
for some time now.
  Any ideas?
