Thank God you've got MPT working. I haven't had a wink of sleep for days
;-)

In MPT select email. The first time you do this it asks if you want it to
import your email accounts from OE (in my case). I said no because I don't
intend to use MPT as my email client. Next it dumps you into a three paned
window. Top left is a list of folders, top right is the contents of the
current folder and bottom is the contents of the current message. In my
setup at least, when I select 'inbox' I see a list of all sms messages in
the phone's inbox. The contents of the handset's outbox appear in a folder
called 'finished transmissions'
