Cheers for all the advice.
I can post a script to dump the message database when I get home, am on the road now.

Now I have to confess I just cannot find the script I used to pull the complete SMS dump from the database. I sure had a few lines of bash that I used to get a CSV dump...

You can get just the SMS text (without dates or phone numbers) by
Code:
tracker-sparql -q "select nie:plainTextContent(?d) where {?d a nmo:SMSMessage}"
