Abstract
A mobile communication device ( ) contains a memory ( ), a controller ( ) and transceiver components ( ). When an incoming call signal is received ( ), the controller compares the source identifier with various lists ( ) stored in the memory. If the source identifier is contained on a rejection list, the call is rejected. If the source identifier is contained on an acceptance list, the call is received normally, unless a do not disturb feature is active. The lists may be fixed or selectable. Selectable lists are configurable by the user of the mobile communication device, whereas fixed list types cannot be changed by the user of the mobile communication device.
