That's correct. The sqlsocket option is currently silently ignored. The
other parameters are used to construct a connection URL as documented at:

http://www.tildeslash.com/libzdb/api-docs/ConnectionPool_8h.html

For mysql it would be possible to support unix sockets it seems (though
not yet in dbmail atm). For postgresql I don't see any reference in the
libzdb docs.

Let me ask on the libzdb list.
