After today's Sailfish OS update I decided to switch to the Jolla as my primary phone. These utilities worked beautifully - thanks merlin1991!

I've hacked an old smsexporter program to work with newer rtcom-eventlogger DB format (used on recent versions of N900 FW) and output CSV format which can be imported in Jolla.
So, you can export SMS messages from your N900 by using:
e.g.:
(it must be run as normal user, not as root)
and then use generated file with Merlin's jollaImport to import SMS messages to your Jolla.
Please note I'm not a C programmer and this is just a quitck&dirty hack. So please check the generated file whether the format looks okay and backup Jolla's history DB before importing.
But it worked fine for me, I've transfered about 2000 of SMS messages without problem.

when I use the command "n900export" on N900, it says "not found" although I copied the bin to /home/user/ as well as the .cvs files I got from Nokia communication centre, am I doing something wrong?

Look several posts above - use develsh command!
EDIT: On Jolla? I missed that. Are you sure you have all the right permissions setup for the import script? Do
EDIT1: Copy and paste here exactly the commands and the error message.
EDIT2: Change the permission on the script file itself. Looks like it is not executable. Run:
and then(if permission not correct)

develsh command does not work on Jolla, I am getting the "permission denied" message on my Jolla, even after "devel-su" command... I am already done with the n900 part.
EDIT: I did like you suggested: chmod 777 smsbackup.csv
and then ./jollaImport -s smsbackup.csv
and the same message came:
EDIT1: great, that was the problem, thanks for your help and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Firstly, thankyou for the exporter! I was using smsbackup and it suffered from the libcommhistory bug - really annoying.
Secondly, I am wondering is it possible to export the messages to match the timezone set for the phone, not GMT?
I see how to do it now, using Qt::SystemLocaleLongDate but I do not have the scratchbox installed. :-)
EDIT: Scratchox installed and locatime used for exported sms's.
