Hi, I'm aware that current stable has no support for compressed
messages.

I don't particularly care too much for compressed messages myself, as
our import scripts wont likely do anything with it thats legible

But I've just found two weeks of irretrievable messages in the device
( a huawei E160X , no configs/server changes since  installing 0.6.31
when it was released, what, umm, 3 years ago?) that ordinarily works
flawlessly.

Debug reported type 65 compressed message, I had to manually delete it
before other messages could be retrieved, which is not optimum given its
a USB device attached to server to automatically send/get SMS's.

script calls --getsms SM 0 end --delete


Suggestion, there be put in place a failover to carry on after an
errored message.

EG:
If messages exist 0 -27 
and message 0 is unable to be retrieved (say, its compressed), gnokii
should at least, complain about it as it did, but then ignore the
message and carry on, getting,  then deleting, remaining messages
(1-27), which at present, at least in our case, it did not.

Cheers
 Noel
