A facsimile automatically reports transmission of a facsimile message upon transmitting the facsimile message. For reporting the message transmission, facsimile numbers of called parties are stored in a memory together with their corresponding telephone numbers. Then, the facsimile message is transmitted to a called facsimile corresponding to any one of the facsimile numbers. Thereafter, the facsimile immediately dials the corresponding telephone number to transmit a transmission reporting voice message.
