The message was not sent because of an error.

Your message was not sent. Please click on the URL below, complete the image puzzle, and then resend your message.

I have used AOL for many years and I have recently found a problem with their email which often is sent with various (mostly TOTV) duplications in incoming emails. I contacted them only to be told that they are presently in a transitional period and hope this will be corrected soon.

I never received your aol error message, however, I would be very very cautious in opening that URL in the email you recd as you can obviously see that the last word in the link is "spam." I would send that email directly to your SPAM folder. One must be sooo careful these days for all of the cyber hackers out there.
