Congrats on working through all this. Slightly off topic but related. I assume you're doing this to send out license codes or something similar. Some time ago, I had a need to automatically react to someone purchasing one or more mp3 music files. This is way before I even knew about LiveCode and certainly didn't know anything about htmp, cgi. php, etc.
At the time I was using the Mac Mail client and it lets you define rules for identifying and processing incoming messages, including the ability to run an Applescript. I was able to cobble together an Applescript that tracked down the mp3 file(s) that had been purchsed (using the PayPal product codes) and send an automated reply to the purchaser with download link(s) to them. It worked pretty nicely for me. I've long since switched to using gMail and although its Filters are somewaht equivalent to the Mail rules, you can't specify any type of external script to run against messages identified by a filter. I really miss that now that I'm involved with sending out license codes! I may have to go back to using the Mail client just to collect PayPal messages.
