There is no support for this in the Android SDK, as storing SMS is the
job of an SMS client, not the operating system.

It is the only way. I would not be the least bit surprised to find
this undocumented/unsupported provider locked down in the future the
way they recently locked down Gmail. I am hoping they don't -- I'm
really hoping this provider gets formal SDK support someday.

Also, there is no guarantee that this provider exists on any given
device or is used by the user's chosen SMS client on any given device.
