Servicing an incoming Facsimile (FAX) communication includes receiving the incoming FAX communication by a source telephony bridging device via a source PSTN connection, the incoming FAX communication having an incoming FAX number associated therewith. Based upon the incoming FAX number, the source telephony bridging device determines a user ID in a peer-to-peer Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP) network, determines an Internet Protocol (IP) address of a destination telephony bridging device based upon the user ID in the peer-to-peer VoIP network, and determines an outgoing FAX number based upon the user ID in the peer-to-peer VoIP network. The source telephony bridging device, an intermediate packet data network, and the destination telephony bridging device bridge the FAX communication from the source PSTN connection to a destination PSTN connection, the FAX communication directed to the outgoing FAX number.
