I know it is possible to do it, because the peepcode.com website does 
it. As the developer of the website didn't even bother encrypting the 
params, I tried to look at the html code, but I was not able to identify 
any param that could alter this behaviour. It is probably a hidden 
option somewhere in the paypal Business profile.

The code in this plugin is an absolute joke. Very php-compliant. Some 
methods simply call other methods without doing anything at all except 
passing the exact same args. I am also fed up having to hunt for these 
class vars scattered all over the place.

I would not recommend using this plugin as is, it is better to 
understand it and refactor it... a lot.

By the way, why do you use SSL for the IPN? Isn't Paypal's notification 
encrypted?


PS: the developer of the Rails plugin by Paypal is a developer of 
ActiveMerchant.
