How fucking stupid is that? Sorry, but not having a good morning. This is like when I found out you can't set the number of rings either. Sometimes I just want to smash all my tech and go back to rocks, sticks, and leaves.

For me, Its the call forwarding option. My Cell provider has a special number in there for unanswered calls. If you forward that to a number that isn't real all unanswered (and blocked calls) will get a 'this number does not exist" message.

Be careful with this because real callers and people you know will get the message if you don't answer.
