Somehwere I've seen a lsit but I can't find it again.
This document https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/ipn/ht_ipn/ has this url:
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr
but i've also seen:
https://ipnpb.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr
and indeed a list of alternatives somewhere. Where might that list be?
Does it matter - and what are the differences?
Thanks

@Kroptokin - Both URL's are valid, with some smaller differences.
Currently IPNPB only accepts HTTPS connections, where as paypal.com doesn't, it also accepts HTTP connections, the other difference is that IPNPB has a list of static IP's in case you need to add them to firewall's, where as PayPal.com URL has dynamic IP allocation, so not useful for those folks that use firewalls at all
