To accommodate calls to a destination number which may be either voice calls or a facsimile call, an answering apparatus receives the call when it is unanswe red by a telephone and provides voice mail services. If while handling the call as a voic e call a facsimile calling tone is received, the answering apparatus switches to facsimil e call handling. If the call is answered by the telephone, the answering apparatus is conferenced in and initiates facsimile call handling if a facsimile calling tone is received. The a nswering apparatus may be configured to handle other non-voice calls in addition to, or i n place of, facsimile calls, such as TTY/TDD calls.
