I use a little service call Textability (www.textability.com).

They offer an HTTP interface, so you just get your server to fire off an HTTP request when you want to send a text. It’s super-quick and allows you to supply an originator number as well as the destination. It supports delivery reports too…

Code:

Dim szTextabilityService As String

'Create the URL for the szMessage to be sent

szTextabilityService = getKeyword("TEXTABILITY_SERVICE") _

& "&recipient=" & szRecipient & "&message=" & szMessage & "&origin=" & szOriginator	



'Create XMLHTTP object that will perform the HTTP request

Set vXMLHTTP = CreateObject("Msxml2.Serverxmlhttp.4.0")

Call vXMLHTTP.open("GET", szTextabilityService, False)

Call vXMLHTTP.send()



Dim szResponse As String

szResponse = vXMLHTTP.responseText

If Not Left(szResponse, 3) = "+OK" Then

	'Error in sending

	Call mailError("Error sending message: " & szResponse)

	Call GLogger.LogAction("szOriginator: " & szOriginator)

	Call GLogger.LogAction("szRecipient: " & szRecipient)

	Call GLogger.LogAction("szMessage: " & szMessage)

	Exit Sub

End If

SMS123 has both User GUI for Notes and web clients and LotusScript API for developers. It can handle several Internet-based SMS gateways to send SMS to basically any phone number in the world and also can use serial-connected phone/modem for emergency situations when connection to Internet is not possible.

To send SMS with one code line using SMS123 LotusScript API:

msgid = SendSMS(phone_number, message_text)

To check delivery status of sent SMS:

messagestatus=CheckSMSStatus(msgid)
