I'm developing a module that handles IPN calls from Paypal. From the documentation, I see that when txn_type = 'recurring_payment_skipped', the IPN will be retried up to 3 times, 5 days apart. But what about other transaction types, such as 'subscr_failed' and 'recurring_payment_failed'? Do they enter the retry process as well or are they sent once only?
Thanks!

I have a
tx_type => subscr_failed
transaction I am dealing with right now. On my end the communication from paypal also sends a
retry_at =>
with the date and time that it will retry which is in 5 days in my case. This is the second one I have received.
So the answer at least for subscr_failed is that paypal will retry a few days later
