I'm not positive but was the address info checking done within the try 
to catch any possible exception?

This code dates back to very early IPA code (say 4 years old or so) when 
we were pretty new to python and somethings catching things in a very 
broad way.

Is it possible that running through the addresses could raise an 
unhandled exception?
