The dilemma of dilemna

I was taught to spell dilemma as “dilemna” at school. It wasn’t until a few years ago that I found out that it was incorrect and I’m asking why…

So, I started a discussion on our forums (Dilemma or dilemna? How do you spell it?) which has had quite a few replies over the years. Can anyone offer any final explanation on how a small percentage of us are convinced that we were taught the incorrect spelling of this?
