+<td>smfi_opensocket attempts to create the socket specified previously by
+a call to <tt>smfi_setconn()</tt> which will be the interface between MTAs
+and the filter. This allows the calling application to ensure that the
+socket can be created. If this is not called, <tt>smfi_main()</tt> will
+do so implicitly. </td>
