Thank you.   Yes to all your questions.  I received the transaction ID at my correct email address.     Another PayPal payment today from the same sender, using a different sender's email address, and that one went through fine so I got my payment OK.   It's possible that the sender cancelled the first payment after the PayPal information was sent to me.    I've emailed the sender am waiting for a reply.    I still would like to know if there is a way to track a Transaction ID using PayPal's system.  I can't find anywhere to do that. ...
