I had actually tried kdeconnect-sms some time ago and abandoned it because of
this behaviour. I came back to try it again and decided I'd better report the
problem. So the short answer is "no".

The Samsung messaging app. When I tried in the past I was using Textra.

I think you're right, evidently I may be using incorrect terminology. Though
curiously, the *one* multi person conversation that appears on   my desktop has
some messages on my 'phone marked MMS and others not.  Though that's a fairly
old conversation, not touched since last June.

No pattern I can discern, unfortunately.  I *did* change network a couple of
months ago, but given the fact that the previous time I tried it i had the same
problem, I'm guessing that's probably irrelevant to this problem.

I can't see any option to hide messages in the app, so I don't think I've done
that.

Its feeling like the problem is something screwed up on my 'phone rather than
in KDEConnect. So I'm inclined to suggest closing this off and assuming it's a
one-off problem at the user-end. Since I can *send* messages from the command
line with kdeconnect-cli, I've got most of the functionality I really need
anyway. Thanks for your work on this.
