This syntax should only be used for HTTP header IF the web server you
are using knows to parse HTML META tags and add them as HTTP headers to
the response.

Other uses of HTML META HTTP-EQUIV should be limited to headers only
relevant to the browser and not intermediary caches such as Squid.

For a good primer on how HTTP caching works see the Caching tutorial for
Web authors and Webmasters <url:http://www.mnot.net/cache_docs/> by Mark
Nottingham (aka mnot).
