Ah, I get it. That was a bit of confusion. Yes the N900 doesn't like new numbers in threaded conversations. But then again you are getting threaded conversations, which is not something you traditionally get so you may be better off than in the traditional way.

I sometimes send sms's to my wife through google voice and sometimes direct through my phone company. they ofcourse show up in two different threads.

This would need to be a setting to choose in the messaging app, whether to pool conversations for contacts or not. I can however only see it as being a messy affair in creating that selection.

The sms's should still be visible on your phone though, they should just appear as from a "unknown contact", simply displaying the old number that he used to have instead of his name if you've removed that old number from your address book.
