PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a network facsimile apparatus and a network facsimile communication system which possibly avoids rejecting a communication because of being busy, etc. and prevents communications from being concentrated on a specific terminal. SOLUTION: When a delayed delivery service request terminal receives a terminating call of facsimile communication from a calling terminal but cannot immediately communicate, the delayed delivery service request terminal sends a delayed delivery service request to a delayed delivery service terminal on a network. If the delayed delivery service terminal is communicable, it sends a facsimile message to the calling terminal to execute the delayed delivery service of reception information using the delayed delivery service terminal. In this process, the delayed delivery service terminal permits the delayed delivery service only when the calling terminal's IP address stored on an information table is equal to that contained in call connection information and the delayed delivery service request terminal's IP address stored on the information table is equal to a called connection IP address contained in the call connection information.
