We are requesting payments through PayPal from our web sites store module. The site is using the notify_url parameter in its requests.
Am I correct in the assumption, that we can turn off IPN in PayPal profile settings?
We are receiving IPNs for manual payment requests we sometimes issue by email which are rejected by our web server. In turn we get warnings from PayPal.
I had IPN enabled in profile settings and message delivery was enabled as well.
According to the documentation, one can turn off IPN and it will still work, as long as the web site passes the notify_url parameter.
It feels a bit weird to turn it off.
Or is there maybe a parameter that we could add to our email payment requests that we send out to turn it off per transaction?
Thank you in advance!

Turned the IPN feature off.
For each transaction, the IPN settings in the profile are only used when no notify_url is present.
When notify_url is present, that URL is used and the profile settings have no effect whatsoever.

Integrations that use IPN are extremely old and you should upgrade to a current API-based one that does not use IPN for anything.
