Generally speaking, pursuant to these various embodiments, a network element (such as, but not limited to, a gateway) can use ( 101 ) a first communication resource to support an application communication session with a first communication platform. By one approach this application communication session is not native to the first communication resource. The network element then uses ( 102 ) a second communication resource to at least attempt to extend the application communication session to a second communication platform. By these teachings, when this attempt fails, the network element nevertheless automatically provides ( 104 ) a second communication platform application communication session-compatible message to the first communication platform as though the attempt to extend the application communication session to the second communication platform had succeeded.
