So you say, the calling program should never have passed an empty string as a
value to an argument that requires a file?

Agreed. Evolution should have checked that.

Read.

Not the same as verify arguments' contents. And do FS check to test the
argument exists, is a socket, and the apparent listener seems to be a spamd
instance. Neither for TCP. So what?

False.

If you strongly believe I am wrong, please tell us at least the comment number
rather than "above" only.

You didn't.

I won't.

It has not.  (Unless you refer to your private system only.)

                          ^^
By "we" you mean...

Please add a comment to this bug report, if/when "we"/you ever patch it
downstream.
