You seem to be assuming that people *could* have answered the question
but chose not to, simply because it's off-topic for this group.

If a socket expert was reading this group and saw the question, I'm sure
they could have answered it and set the message headers so the answer
would appear here and also in a socket-appropriate group, and any further
discussion would then continue in that other group.

However, in the absence of such an expert, the best answer we can give,
and the answer we DID give, is to go ask somewhere else.  Why is that so
bad?
