What is disadvantageous if I cannot receive IPN from paypal?

[ngenge]

Hello,

I decide to put following code in plugin/vmpayment/paypal/paypal.php in order to receive auto confirmed mails. But if like that, I cannot receive IPN  from paypal. Is there any issues can happen if I cannot receive IPN from paypal?

$modelOrder = VmModel::getModel ('orders');
$order = array();
$order['order_status'] = 'C';
$modelOrder->updateStatusForOneOrder ($virtuemart_order_id, $order, TRUE);

Best regards,
NgeNge

Hello

The IPN  notification is a "service" provided by Paypal  to automate your back-office operations.
When you do not use this "service" (whatever are the reasons), you must check your paypal account to find out if the shopper actually pais or not. That's all.

But why you don't receive them?

Hi,

It's not that I dont like to use. It's because I cannot find a way to make it.

Inside log file is
[04/Oct/2012:17:59:12 +0800] "GET /index.php HTTP/1.1" 200 24678 "http://lushmobel.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=pluginresponse&task=pluginresponsereceived&on=2408025&pm=1&Itemid=0"
200 means successful right?

Inside paypal.log is
2012-10-04 09:14:02
message: plgVmConfirmedOrder order number: 2408025

I didn't receive any confirmation mails except only received from paypal.
Is this topic same as my condition http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=107606.0 ?
I would like to try. But I cannot find Outgoing Connections manager to "De-activate" button.
