Hi,
It is 100% secure as the purchase is done at PayPal. Right after the
purchase PayPal server will run your IPN script on your site passing
all the IPN parameters to it. The script first acknowledge it exists
(else PayPal will try during 5 days), then you check if the sale
comes from the right address, whether the transaction ID doesn't
already exists and than the payment is completed. After all checks
you send a message to the client with your blurb and the serial. My
script also checks if messages are sent properly else they are queued
and sent later. After almost 2 months using it, not a single problem.

Interesting. . .and how secure is this method exactly?

This message comes very late but finally I have made a page for my
PayPal IPN PHP script: http://www.maxprog.com/scripts/paypal_ipn/
index.html
You can download the script and see how it works. It is simple to
modify. Currently I am handling almost 100% of my sales thru PayPal,
with automatic serials generation and delivery. At the beginning I
was worried that could affect sales negatively, well, I was wrong,
sales actually have grown. Seems people like PayPal. Also it is very
simple to port RB code to PHP for reg code generation, it took a
couple of hours to me.
I will later try to upload the script I use. It also generates
serials and use localized templates to send them.
