We changed the "error" message in I think 1.9? Maybe 1.8 to say "You
clicked on a stale link. Maybe you have already verified your email?"
I'll look into improving this I guess.

It should be possible to open the link multiple times, but only

the password reset once. If that's not the case (sounds like it is)
feel free to create a JIRA issue to report this as a bug.

We are having issues with some users when they are attempting to
use the password reset feature. It does work for most users
however for some they always end up at an error page saying "WE'RE
SORRY ... An error occurred, please login again through your
application"
What I have been able to determine so far is that for the affected
users we are seeing a double hit on that URL in the server logs
and from what I understand, these reset URLs are invalidated as
soon as they are accessed.
So here's the state of play
* works for most users
* some users hitting the reset URL twice
* URL is only valid for the first access (I'm not 100% sure about
this, can someone confirm please?)
* URL is only valid for 30 minutes (but is being accessed within a
few minutes of generation)
* affected users are mostly using Outlook
* some people tend to double click links in emails but I've
verified with a reliable user that they are only clicking the link
once
* having the affected person send themselves another reset email
and then copy and paste the URL from the mail client usually
resolves this problem
And questions
* is this an issue anyone else has noticed with Outlook, doesn't
affect ALL Outlook users, just some
* is there a way to prevent the URL from being invalidated on
initial access
* is it feasible to change the behavior so that the URL is only
invalidated when the password is changed
* any other thoughts on how to avoid this issue?
