Why does select * from usertable where user=username and Password =
password('passowrd') not worked?

select * from usertable where user=username and password('password') does
work, but that only checks if user exists and doesn't check for the correct
password...

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Use the PASSWORD() MySQL builtin function as follows:

INSERT INTO Table
VALUES ('0', 'username', PASSWORD('password'), 'email')

This function is not part of the SQL standard. It is
used for storing passwords in the MySQL user table in
the mysql database schema named mysql among other things.
