[Gmsh] STL remesh problem

Hello everybody,
first of all, thanks for gmsh: it is a really cool software!

I have an STL model which I would like to use with Elmer solver
(http://www.csc.fi/english/pages/elmer)

In order to do so I need a volume mesh and the 6 enclosing surfaces
for the BC conditions.

I read the manual and the page on STL remeshing
(https://geuz.org/trac/gmsh/wiki/STLRemeshing) and I was able to
obtain a volume mesh from it (see attached simple.zip). However, I'm
unable to obtain also the 6 surfaces as separate entities (see
surf.zip).

Is this possible with the current version of gmsh (gmsh 2.6.1)?

Thanks and regards,

Mario
