Feb 2009-No more payment notifications from PayPal

[chestnut01]

Just got an email from Paypal that states that as of Feb. 2009, they will no longer be sending payment notifications. It did state that if you have your IPN directed at a download service, that it would not be effected, and those notifications will still go through. However...and I don't know if anyone else does it this way...I rely on those PayPal emails to let me know when I receive an order. I print the order from the PayPal email, come here to eJunkie, then check the printed order against my logs to make sure the customer received their downloads ok. I then file the order for my records/bookkeeping. Without those payment notifications from PayPal...which include the itemized order... does that mean that I'm going to have to log in here, or my PayPal, a zillion times a day to check for orders??? Is there any kind of set up here at eJunkie that will send a copy of the orders to my email???

I got an email also, but nowhere did they say payment notifications were among those emails that are being canceled, just:





* The email you receive when you cancel an order (Merchant cancel email: ID# PP594)

* The email your customer receives when you cancel an order (Buyer void email: ID# PP592)

* The email you receive when funds move out of your customer's PayPal account (Merchant capture email: ID# PP593)

* The email your customer receives when funds move out of their PayPal account (Buyer capture email: ID# PP591)

* The email you receive after you initiate a refund to a customer (Merchant refund email: ID# PP286)
