Hi,
Having just changed my phone I've got a lot of backed up messages in
csv format (without the sender name, so I'm going to have to reconcile
it with the separate contacts backup). While there are ways to get tem
onto my new phone I'm not really sure I want them there, but some are
useful and need to be kept. What I'm wondering is if there's some kind
of desktop reader that can handle this. I'd have thought an email
client, or groupware like evolution would have a way to handle SMS,
but haven't found anything so far (there are addons for *sending*, but
not sure they do what I want, which is ability to sort, search and
browse received messages).
Since csv is plain text with separators you can use any text editor or
other text manipulation program from plethora of tools available in
UNIX/Linux world - cat, less, grep for example.
It might not be easy for e-mail client to understand all combinations of
exported data from different mobile devices. This might be the reason
you have your data in csv (plain text) and not in proprietary backup
file format.
