I've gotten my new Zen Cart up and running in the last few days and about every 8 hours I receive a set of 6 emails with the following subjects:

  • ec_step1 - 1
    long email, first two lines say: Checking to see if we are in markflow
  • getOverrideAddress - 4
    email contents: not logged in and not in markflow mode - nothing to override
  • ec-step1-addr_check
    email contents: cart contents is not all virtual or customer is not logged in ... therefore will be submitting address details
  • ec-step1-addr_check3
    email contents: address details from override check:
  • ec_step1 - 2 -submit
    email contents: Array
    (
    [AMT] => 9.99
    [RETURNURL] =>

    [CANCELURL] =>

    [CURRENCY] => USD
    [PAYMENTACTION] => Sale
    [SOLUTIONTYPE] => SOLE
    )
  • PayPal Debug log - SetExpressCheckout
    email contents: LONG


I have no idea what any of these mean, or why the cart is talking to me.

I know the cart is working, I received my first order this afternoon.

I've had a ZenCart for a year or two, older version that I've never updated but I've never gotten anything like this.

Is this normal? Have I screwed up something in the cart? Does everyone's cart communicate with them like this?

Thanks -
