Why does it keep showing error smpt.aol.com whenever I try so send email

Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.

Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

You can try turning the primary server off and select another smtp server in the list below, if you have another one. I had to do that when I restored my new iPad from the backup of my original iPad. But I have additional smtp servers for AOL.

You can also delete the account and start over again.

Probably because you entered "smpt" instead of smtp in your outgoing email setting.
