NAME
       ncidd.blacklist - blacklist file for ncidd hangup

DESCRIPTION
       The  ncidd.blacklist  file  contains the expressions to match against a
       telephone call name or number.

       If the hangup option is set and if there is no match in	the  whitelist
       file,  a	 match in the blacklist file will cause ncidd to automatically
       terminate the call.

       The ncidd.blacklist file understands 4 types of lines:

       blank line:   skip it

       comment line: skip it

       entry line:   process it

       Entry lines contain one or more expressions and	an  optional  comment.
       An  expression is either a string of non-blank characters or everything
       between double quotes.  Multiple expressions are separated  by  spaces.
       A comment must be last.

       Entry line comments are either normal comments or match name comments.

       A normal comment begins with a '#' and must not be immediately followed
       by an equals sign. Anything after the '#' is ignored.

       A match name comment begins with '#=' and is followed by a name to dis‐
       play for the caller when the entry matches either the number or name of
       a call.	Do not use double quotes around the name.

       Example:	   407-555-5670	   #= Unwanted Marketing Call

NOTES
       ·  Each expression is compared to the caller name and number.

       ·  Upper and lower case letters are significant.

       ·  The  number  must  be	 a  string  of	digits	as  they   appear   in
	  /var/log/cidcall.log.

       ·  A leading '1' is required if it is in /var/log/cidcall.log.

       ·  A partial name or number can match.

       ·  If regular expressions are used (regex = 1):
	  * POSIX Extended Regular Expression Syntax.
	    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression
	  * Introduction to Regular Expressions
	    http://www.regular-expressions.info/quickstart.html

       ·  A  '^'  at the beginning of an expression means it must match at the
	  start of a name or number.

       ·  A "^1?" at the beginning makes a leading 1 optional.	This  is  only
	  useful for US/Canadian numbers.

       ·  If  an  expression  is  longer than the name or number field it will
	  never match.

EXAMPLES
       Blacklist the unassigned 999 area code with and without a leading 1
	    ^1?999

       Blacklist callers with the name "BAD MARKETING":
	    "BAD MARKETING"

       Blacklist anything with "MARKETING" in the name:
	    MARKETING

       Blacklist a caller name and a different caller number on one line:
	    Ogre 13215551212
