I use my premier Paypal account for purchases and sales on other sites. I dont need to get the confirmations from these transactions, so its not a problem setting my primary email on PayPal to that of my domain and only letting the script check that email address.
However what will the script do when it checks the email account and has payments made and received from Paypal not connected to the auction site ? Will it just ignore these?
Hi Ahmed, I have now tried the payment system - but have been unable to get it to work
I have set the Process payments email address to my Primary PayPal email address after creating it and it is confirmed.
The Paypal primary Address is set in admin and is the account on my domain.
Used the User name and Password for the above account on my domain
Set the Account hostname to mail.ebasyi.com (as indicated by hostgator)
I have tried All 3 authority modes.
For the last hour I have repeatedly clicked check paypal payment - then waited - then changed authority mode and tried again- but it reports no payment received from the user account that made the payment.
I have just logged in with the user name and password to check via webmail and the PayPal notification of payment email is there and unread.
I see from the merchant code that it checks for the message id being 123456789.1235/@paypal .com which the message has in the header and the email address the payment was made from and to is correct so I dont know whats wrong.
If you check the email from the web or using any email cleint, the program will not be able to get the payment email. Someday we will use Paypal IPN easier.
Hi Ahmed, thanks for your reply. I only checked the email account after an hour of trying to get the script to find the payment changing the settings etc and clicking check paypal payment option. Is there someway or something I could temporarily add to the merchant.pm or other script to get it to print out to the screen what
it is has checked so at least I know whether it is actually getting to access the email account ? Maybe print to screen the Array it uses to temporarily store the email headers in or something similar?
