Consider how awkward a filter's responses would be. You would you please tell him I'm with Bill Bishop Associates?

Receptionist: No. filters generally won't answer the question negatively. Instead, they signify a yes by connecting you to the prospect. Will answer ask eliminate all secretarial screening?
