As nobody gave a better answer:

AFAIK, there are standard AT commands for that. Thus you should give a
shot to e.g. gnokii.

Just for fun: my phone (N900, in "PC Suite" mode) using AT commands.


# screen /dev/ttyACM0 115200

(in screen)

AT+CPBS="ME"
ERROR
AT+CPBS+
ERROR
AT+CPBS?
ERROR


I guess it's not that standard.
