To/From bug fixed with commit 4841c90
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnokii.git/commit/?id=4841c90dc17e45fe47d789dd452cd03198095c30

For the issue about MSISDN in future please send separate reports for different issues, but in this case it would be a WONTFIX since we decode exactly what Nokia puts in the PDU (no SMSC, fake Finnish phone number, a date in 1999) and the effort to support yet another proprietary format is too much both because we don't know if it will change and because it stores multiple recipients so it doesn't map easily to --getsms syntax.
Note that you can decode it yourself if you retrieve the message with --getfile (see debug output of --getsms for paths).

Easily remedied niggle. Suggest replace initial "To XXX" with "From XXX" so that tools that read mbox can operate on the file using the "From " as the separator.

Also, just noticed that the MSISDN of the recipient isn't recorded in any case.

Occurs when retrieving sent messages from the Outbox (i.e. OU) on a Nokia 6300 over bluetooth. Probably sent messages in general.

The file is written thus:
