I just took a good look at how the ipn function in
satchmo.payment.modules.paypal.views works and it seems I have to POST
some values to the ipn url (paypal/ipn/) so that it interacts with a
Paypal and receive a payment confirmation.

What I can't figure out is when I should use it. It doesn't seem to be
automatic right?

Do I have to run it using a cron job? I made a GREP search for "ipn"
in my satchmo directory to find out that the cron_rebill function in
satchmo.payment.views.cron seems to be related to that somehow. Should
I call that function?

I tried looking into Satchmo's doc about this IPN thing and can't find
anything about it either.

thanks a million time.
