URGENT: Not Getting Order Confirmations

HELP!!

 

Okay, when a customer places as order, I get the PayPal payment confirmation showing the total and the shipping amount. However, I am not getting an OSC order confirmation email telling me exactly what was ordered, nor does the order show up in the Order section of the Customer tab. When I search all ordres, I see nothing.

 

When I try a test purchase on myself (order the cheapest item and ship to myself to test the system all the way thru), I DO get the itemized order confirmation email, including the extra one that I send to myself as the administrator - so I get two emails, one as the customer, and one as the store owner. But if a normal customer places an order, I get no confirmation email as the store owner.

 

Luckily I have been able to do the math and remove the shipping cost to determine what has been ordered. But I have to send another confirmation email manually to confirm with the customer. Not Good!!

 

The problem has to be in my OSC settings. But I can not figure it out.

 

HELP!!

 

Thanks!

I went to the PayPal website and changed my Website Payment Preferences to do Auto Return, but it isn't working. PayPal continues to not re-direct customers back to my site automatically. I'll take a look at the IPN feature. In the meantime, I just hardcoded a message on my payment page asking them to confirm their order by hitting the "Return to Site" button after PayPal processes their payment - some do, some don't. Ugh ....
