I'll work on it this coming week. I've been busy the past couple of
days. Perhaps you heard about the city-wide power failure in Cambridge,
MA on Thursday afternoon? My mail server ate it's system drive because
of that despite the server being on a UPS and being shut down cleanly
(it seemed). I spent Friday afternoon and evening building a new mail
server and restoring my users' mail from backups and the salvaged data
drives.

Does it make sense to test the existence of both sockets and do
the right thing if either exists?
