Well, it is sometimes better to remind us about this from time to time ;-)

Is it valid for gnokii only or also for xgnokii? If I understand correctly
test is:
gnokii --getphonebook ME 1 end
is it correct?

Oh, OK I think I understnd now. [editing a file] Well, it does not look
wrong. Could you please send me the dump output from:
gnokii --getphonebook ME 1
and
gnokii --getphonebook ME 301
Thanks.

I think we can fix this today :-)

Thanks for the report. Sorry for 2 years delay.
