Filter inbound callers based on ID

folks, I need to start using my Sonic landline to receive calls from a Doorking telephone-based entry system. The rare cases where I plugged the phone in the wall jack I was bombarded by telemarketers so I decided not to use it at all. Now I'm thinking of using it but I'd like the phone to ring only when the Doorking calls.

I found this thread on Uservoice: https://sonicnet.uservoice.com/forums/1 ... -filtering ... looks abandoned: is it scheduled for release any time soon?

it would be cool to have filtering for incoming calls the same way we filter and act on emails based on senders. The first telecom company offering that will have me as a customer :) What other options exist (inside Sonic or outside)? Suggestions appreciated...

If you don't use the phone for anything else, can you just have Sonic assign a new number?

Also asked in the robocall thread -- can Sonic filter calls to my landline that spoof my same landline number in the caller-ID?
