I too have found this a huge problem!   Within the past two days, Paypal has changed the email alerts of a payment. They used to come from the customer's email address. Now they all come from service@paypal.com which makes searching them extremely inconvenient, and makes it extremely confusing to see new orders.   I would like to strongly encourage a return to the previous system, where payment alerts are from the customer's address. ...

Mine was working again for a couple of days, but it has just stopped again as of this afternoon.  Fortunately a customer alerted me and I've gone back to checking for orders by logging into my account every half hour or so.  Looks like another long night. ... View more

I should mention that I am now receiving notifications from Paypal but they are being sent 8-10 hours after the initial order, which doesn't do me much good.  However, it does indicate that they are starting to get things rolling again.  ... View more

This is happening to me as well.  It's driving me nuts -- my customers are worldwide and they need their files right away.  Without the chime of the email notices I have to check my account constantly to see if there are new orders.  This means, among other things, waking up every hour on the hour even at night.  I'm not going to survive this very long. ...
