Haven't tested this (all these should be testable from SMSCON-Editor IMO), but I guess it sends only the latest IMSI-code back?
It wouldn't hurt to send ALL IMSI-codes it finds somehow (from gconf IAPs for example) in time decending order, as much what can be fit to 160 (SMS) characters at least.
Also, why not getting back all WLAN-MACs it finds from gconf with some SMSCON command.

The purpose of the tests in the editor, is to check that the settings the user has added work. It is not designed as a tester for the SMSCON daemon.
We want to make sure that the number, mail, passwords are somehow correct and the service can use them.

Ok. What is the reasoning not to use smscon_daemon's functions to send really the same messages it would send in the real situation? That way also that part of the code would be tested more often.

This is possible but only from command-line (in v0.5-6 & higher). I used it for my own development purposes. It's only for internal testing & debugging of SMSCON!

To simulate a received message:

Code:

smscon -test2 "<SMSCON command>"

Example:

Code:

Nokia-N900:~# smscon -test2 "Location"

Edit: Nevermind

Have fixed it now, and all is working fine...

@digitalvoid

I tried sending a test email from the SMSCon Editor Test tab and also an email with a picture taken from the front camera to my gmail inbox but I did not receive any of those two mails yet so far.

However while testing SMSCon Editor settings I did get a mail informing me about the GPS co-ordinates on my gmail inbox.

Why is it that I did not get the other two mails then?

I still have this problem, that from SMSCON-Editor the simple test mail or test mail with the picture (front camera) works, but Location test mail does not work. Somehow or something it is doing differently in latter case.

The normal test email came OK, the Location test email(s) never came.

It is funny, I have exactly opposite results as the previous poster.

Edit:
And once again, I am sure I do not have "OPERATOR WAP 2.0" IAP in use. Haven't used it since...a month ago. I have the normal full access "OPERATOR Internet" IAP in use almost always and also currently. If I go to Status area, where it shows what Internet-connection IAP is in use (and where you could change it), it says "OPERATOR Internet".

So when it says "GPRS network (OPERATOR WAP 2.0) already connected", it is not true. The program should get the right in use IAP from somewhere else than it gets it now from.

@ funkmunk:

Have you looked at the log of smscon (/tmp/smscon.log)?

Can you send me the log or post it here?

@ zimon:

I will send you tomorow a test pre-release for you to evaluate (0.5-8).

Some changes in the detecting of the networks. Maybe this will solve the problem...

Yes, this can be really usefull! Is it possible with current version?

No, unless you do it by first asking ssh tunnel to the device with REMOTEON command and then doing those queries somehow in command line interface (CLI).....or make an another tunnel (2) for VNC and launch a vnc-server on the N900 side through the first ssh-tunnel.

SMSCON could have this kind of command also, VNCON, which would do the ssh-tunnel as with REMOTEON but first would start the vnc-server and make a same time ssh-tunnels for ssh and vnc.
I am not sure if ssh-client in N900 is cabable creating two tunnels at the same time with two ssh -R -options.

This kind of VNCON-command would not be so useful when the phone is stolen though.
