A system and method for the automatic secondary mode facsimile transmission notification of a facsimile recipient or facsimile sender. The sender of a facsimile transmission selects a designated recipient and, when required, selects primary destination data. The sender then selects a secondary mode notification address, associated with the sender, the recipient, or both, whereby a facsimile status message is transmitted to the notification address. A facsimile operation is then initiated on a sending document processing device, whereby facsimile data is generated and transmitted to a receiving document processing device. The sending document processing device then generates status data representative of the status of the facsimile transmission, e.g., duration, success, failure, time, date, etc. This status data is incorporated in a predetermined message format, e.g., electronic mail, SMS message, text message, pager message, and transmitted to the designated notification address.
