This no longer works on Mountain Lion (10.8.x).

“AutoAcceptInvites” still works, but “AutoAcceptInvitesFrom” is ignored, so all calls are accepted and there is no access control.

This did not work for me (10.7) until I also ran the following:

defaults write com.apple.FaceTime AutoAcceptInvites -bool YES

Then calls from the address previously added were auto-accepted.

I tried this but after the it automatically accepted the call, the ringing wouldn’t stop. Anyone else experience this? I also just realized I tried this without knowing how to remove someone :\

Oh ya, this is a REAL good idea. If I happen to be standing in from of my Mac in my altogether, I certainly want my aunt Lizzie’s FaceTime call to go right through. (rolls eyes)
