Below, you will find a "fix" until Paypal decides one day that a simple 1 line of code can be easily fixed.  You are not alone.  It's not you.  It's Paypal **bleep**ing up with their email templates and taking their sweet time fixing it....   https://www.paypal-community.com/t5/Fraud-phishing-and-spoof/Outlook-Issue/m-p/356042/message-uid/356042#U356042   Temp fix is on page 3: https://www.paypal-community.com/t5/Fraud-phishing-and-spoof/Outlook-Issue/td-p/356042/page/3 ...

Totally ridiculous....we've been all helping each other with ways to get around the issue.  I spent a **bleep** of a lot of time this week wondering what was wrong with my system....I was sure it was outlook so I even reinstalled it...same thing.  Upgraded to 2010.  No luck...even worse than 2007 in time outs. Tried new email clients like Thunderbird.  Thunderbird crashes also BTW.   I found a blog about 2 days later with the host file fix that enables me to continue working with my paypal payment notification emails.   Paypal, leave your system alone. Every time you touch something you **bleep** something else up!  Last time email address of customers weren't appearing in the emails...again error in template.    It's been 5 days now.  You say you are aware of the situation.  We even have given you the solutions and what is causing your problems but nothing is being done.   What kind of company is this.  If I were treating my customers like you I would have long been out of business.   Maybe it's time we find another payment gateway that works and aren't full of incompetent people that have no idea what they are doing.   It's official....You guys are totally ineffective.  5 days and counting for such an easy thing to fix on your end.  Pathetic.   ...
