choosing account preference re incoming and or outgoing calls

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I would like to be able to choose how to use my registered accounts in terms of 
incoming or and outgoing calls. So the accounts only used for incoming calls 
wont show up when placing a call with native android app.

This feature can already be done using filters.

Go in your account, press menu, filters. Add a new filter. Choose Can't call, 
and custom regexp and fill the field with ".*" (without quotes).
Save.... that's it.

This account will then disappear of the choice proposed when dial from android.

Would you mind showing me how to get to the "filters" option?  I cannot find it 
myself.  Thank you.

Sorry, I still cannot get there on my Nexus One.  It only shows a keyboard when 
long press the "Menu" after entering one of the "Account".

No long press, just simple press. Like in all android apps to get the menu. 

Just for information (maybe interesting) :
Single press on menu popup the menu of the current view (if any)
Long press on menu everywhere in every android application popup the keyboard. 

Single press on home go to the home/launcher application
Long press on home show the last application you run (keep as background task 
or not)

Single press on back quit the current view

This 3 buttons are required on any android device (as far as I know there is 
only one manufacturer that has no button for this actions, Archos : they 
reimplemented the notification bar application to allow to access the three 
buttons on screen.... but that was not their best idea ;) )

@alessandro. I mark it as fixed for now. Maybe could be interesting to add a 
filter type "all" to make things easier. I'll try to keep it in mind. I will 
also try to add this use case to the tutorial that will explain filters on the 
wiki.
