hello,

welcome aboards!
assuming Java related question asked:
#1
to read message (sms/mms) with midlet you need to use MobileMedia API (jsr-120/jsr-205) and register your application to listen for such messages
Sending device need to send that message in specific way to let it to reach listening java midlet - otherwise message goes into default system inbox
see for example:
http://www.forum.nokia.com/info/sw.n..._v1_0.zip.html

#2
even if we know where exactly messages are written on device (physical location, path to file) its outside of java api to read that file using FileConnection api (JSR-75) because that system folders is within security box non reachable for untrusted and trusted (3rd party signed midlets) applications - at least on Nokia devices AFAIK,

Peter
