I successfully installed CAPTCHA on a form on my site. I had chosen
only the 5 character image and was still getting a few spam
submissions. So I switched to the 6 character image. This is just
using the HTML code and not changing the mailform file, which was not
changed for the 5-character CAPTCHA either. Made a few test
submissions. Everything worked fine on the web: CAPTCHA showed up,
processed the correct input but not the incorrect, a summary page
showed up. But, no submission data ever reached the email address I
had always used and had not changed and which was receiving the data
fine before the change.

One clue: after I had picked the 6-character version and generated
the new HTML code, I was asked to enter and save the URL that had
been on the submission page. Actually, the field was already
populated from my previous 5-character venture. I hit Save and my
browser (Firefox) crashed. I reopened the browser and tried to submit
that again, but there was no message saying it had been accepted.
Tried several times.

What now?
