I would recommend using a macro to prompt the user to select his or her wireless carrier and phone number and then, based on the input, send an email to the phone number with the proper @ field. Here is a list of some common carrier domains from another Qlik Community post:

Try the attached sheet and see if it helps at all. I am not sure why the message would show up in your sent items, but not in your received messages...

Ensure that your phone is set up to receive messages from the web and that you are using the correct domain. For example, if you are in Canada it would be @vmobl.ca.

Hi,

Thanks for your timing again

actually,Iam in India,

so I have tried with the following

 

objMsg.To = InputBox("Enter 10-Digit Phone Number:","Virgin Mobile","Enter Phone Number")&"@vmobl.in"

but it is giving an error as follows:

DNS Error: Domain name not found

but if i tried with

objMsg.To = InputBox("Enter 10-Digit Phone Number:","Virgin Mobile","Enter Phone Number")&"@vmobl.com"

then its in the sent mail,successfully sent,but i havent received anything in my mobile

any idea about the same??

and also I think so there is noting to do with our mobile settings right,just a msg we r receiving..,

Regards,

Kiruthiga

You need to check if Virgin Mobile offer the service for customers in India.

I wouldn't assume that the gateways are open to world wide customers.

Here is a more detailed list of gateways, but in very detail, you need to check with your mobile provider in India:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_SMS_gateways

I would first try to just use a mail program to test the gateway and delivery, also consider using only plain text, I've heard some gateways won't send out rich text / html format without further notice.

Some / (or maybe most) of the gateways are not free, for example T-Mobile Germany is billing the cost for the SMS on receiver's side (at least with my contract).
