Automated emails for URLs

[mahoux]

I have a question.  KOTR is online and I have had some great response in a little over one week.  My question arises from my PDF clients.

Is there a way to automate an email response to PDF buyers sending the URL out as soon as PayPal receives the payment.  As it stands, I am checking email and trying to get back as quickly as possible, but there may be a slight time lag.

Anyone who knows, let this newbie web publisher in on the script secret.

PS- All the folks who ordered KOTR hardcopies, they are in the mail as of this evening and tomorrow.

Aaron,

There certainly is a way. Check out http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/xcl/rec/ipn-intro-outside. It's super-technical, though.

It does have some sample scripts which should work for you. If you need any help with them, let me know, and I'll help you fix them for your needs.

KOTR is online and I have had some great response in a little over one week.

I know this is off-topic but what is KOTR?  If it's a game you're selling, you should probably put the full title along with a brief description and URL in every post that you mention it (if not every post).

KOTR is Knights of the Road, Knights of the Rail.
It is a game set in 1930s Depression-Era America where players take on the role of hoboes, tramps and wanderers.

I need to update my profile to include all this

edit: oh, and the big thing is thank you Clinton, thank you a heap.
