For NAT, the difference is not really that big.  However, 0.9.0 has a lot of new features and has proven stable in many large-scale setups. However, 0.8.14 is fine for the basics.

No, this only sends an OK when things not really are OK. save("location") will send the 200 OK if you get there.  You are probably stopped by the check_to(). If username (before@) is different from auth name in your client, you will not be authorized.

Because you are not registered (never reached save() ).
