Hello stonecold,

Tired of email clutter? So are we. To make your life easier, we're eliminating some of the automatic emails we send after transactions. These changes will take effect on February 11, 2009. Though you will no longer receive certain emails, all transaction details will still show up in your PayPal account for your record keeping.

What you need to do:
If you don't use PayPal emails to trigger any automated processes, do nothing.
If you've been using any of the emails listed below to trigger actions such as updating accounting and inventory or sending customer communications, you will be able to access this information on the "History" page in your PayPal account. If you want to automate your processing, you may implement Instant Payment Notification (IPN). IPN provides a free, reliable solution for automatically notifying businesses of transaction status. For more details send your developer to www.paypal.com/ipninfo
The emails we're discontinuing are:
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)
To see examples of these emails, visit www.paypal.com/discontinuedemails.

Thanks,
PayPal

what that means is that we are now going to be inundated with questions like, "I want to make sure you did this... or did that b/c I didn't get an email from Paypal."

"The email you receive when funds move out of your customer's PayPal account"
Does this mean the email you get when someone pays you? That could really slow down shipping.
Why don't they give a list of what email you will still get??

One of my biggest concerns is if someone hacks into the system and starts withdrawing funds, how will we know until it's too late. At least with an e-mail notification, we have a fighting chance to stop it.

I wonder if these are emails meant for website transactions,not ebay auction.
see,website which accept paypal payments get emails like you just captured fund from so and so.
best is to view samples like paypal suggests

Economic Reform act of Chairman Obama of the socialist States of America :
10 ounces of meat per month,half a yard of cotton per year per adult.
Hellilujah!
