I have looked at this at least 20 times (ok, may be 5 times) and it looked correct. But, as you may have guessed by now it was NOT. When "we" reconfigured our site we must have made some "minor" changes. This was reflected in the URL. I corrected this in PayPal and as of now it "seems" to work.
However, (there is always a however), I am not getting my redemption codes generated for my Gift Certificates. Another problem - another thread.
The point here is to check - very, very carfully your Instant Payment Notification Preference url and make sure PayPal has it correctly.
Say Goodnight Irene.
