Panic! PayPal's changed notification email format!  

Hi !
It seems that paypal has changed format of payment notification email.
They have deleted section concerning ebay item and
!!!
SHIPPING
ADDRESS
!!!

How am I supposed to fill out address in invoices now?
Open every paypal payment in a browser and copy
line by line?

Question to AW2000 team:
Can you pull out this information somehow else?
May be from "View payment status" on finished
auction page or directly from paypal?

That would be so helpful.

Thanks in advance to the attention to this matter.

Hi again,
Just got an idea,
If you could implement "store buyer addres" from a
clipboard, the same way as it's done from selected
lines in notification email.
I think it's not a big deal to implement, but I will speed
up a filling of address process very much.
Thanks again.

Why don't we all demand from PayPal to put the addresses back?! I think we pay such high fees to PayPal so we can demand to get something back in return.

I think we should do both.

I've written paypal about the problem - sending a "payment" email with no info about who bought what seems rather useless.

And I've wanted to use the store address option from my clipboard for years. I also use aw2k for my webstore, and if I could just copy the entire address block to my clipboard and then store it in aw2k, it would save me at least 4 cut/paste operations.

I agree we should go for both.
I did email paypal asking to reverse this change.
Hope it'll work if more people do the same.
Regards.

Just came from the ebaY/Paypal forum and this was posted.
It's apparently not a planned changed. We can only hope the "fix" comes sooner than later.

"Hi all,

We are aware of the issues that have surfaced this morning. The current issues that we are working to resolve are:

1. Some users may be experiencing intermittent site slowness and 3004 errors when attempting to send payments.

2. "Notification of Instant Payment Received" emails do not include the buyer's shipping address.
Workaround: Click on the link in the email to "view transaction details".

We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. I will continue to update you with information as it comes available.

Best Regards,

Kevin"

Earlier PayPal payment notification emails were not including the buyer's shipping address information. We have resolved this issue and we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Cool!!!
But I still would like to see "store buyer addres" from a clipboard as a feature of AW2000.
