Yeah, that's not how you do APOP authentication.  Unless you can do MD5
hashes in your head, test using a mail client that does APOP.  Or,
better, test using a client that does CRAM-MD5.  The APOP hash isn't
very strong, and I've seen code that supposedly could derive the
original password from an APOP hash, making APOP mostly useless.  (I
can't find it any more, but I wish that I could...  Anyone know where?)
