  Yes.  Because *old* versions of the server accepted 'User-Password
==', and not 'Cleartext-Password :='.  We try to keep compatibility
between versions of the server.

  Even with that, 'User-Password ==' is wrong.  It's been wrong for
nearly three years now.  Any blog, web page, "howto", etc. that suggests
it is wrong, and is out of date.

  At some point, that backwards compatibility will be removed.  Any
systems still using "User-Password ==" will then *break*.
