To block all incoming calls except some based on a prefix, you can do:

  • dconf write /sailfish/voicecall/filter/ignored-numbers ["*"]
  • dconf write /sailfish/voicecall/filter/whitelist ["^+3956"]

The logic for the filtering is based on :

 // Give priority to exact matching.
        if (m_whitelist.exactMatch(recipient.remoteUid())) {
            return FILTER_APPROVE;
        } else if (m_rejected.exactMatch(recipient.remoteUid())) {
            return FILTER_REJECT;
        } else if (m_ignored.exactMatch(recipient.remoteUid())) {
            return FILTER_IGNORE;
        } else if (m_whitelist.match(recipient)) {
            return FILTER_APPROVE;
        } else if (m_rejected.match(recipient)) {
            return FILTER_REJECT;
        } else if (m_ignored.match(recipient)) {
            return FILTER_IGNORE;
        } else {
            return FILTER_NO_MATCH;
        }

And the matching function for each list is :

    for (const QString &filter : list()) {
        if (filter.startsWith('+') || filter[0].isDigit()) {
            // Exact number matching
            if (recipient.matchesRemoteUid(filter)) {
                return true;
            }
        } else if (filter.startsWith('^')) {
            // Prefix matching
            if (recipient.remoteUid().startsWith(filter.mid(1))) {
                return true;
            }
        } else if (filter == QStringLiteral("*")) {
            // All
            return true;
        } else {
            qCWarning(voicecall) << "unknown filter" << filter;
        }
    }
    return false;

These are taken from voicecall/plugins/filter/lib at master · sailfishos/voicecall · GitHub for those interested in modifying or improving the code. Note also that this plugin is exporting a library, that can be used in application to change the lists programmatically.
