Please note that this vulnerability isn't as serious as you describe it.
At least on my S45, I am able to interrupt this 2 minute delay at any
time by pressing the 'hang up' key (but I have to press it for about half a
second instead of just hitting it), the message can be read by using
'edit message' instead of 'read message', and it can be deleted without
problems.

So while this obviously is a bug, it can hardly be called a DoS.
