Re: response and post in django

The straightforward thing is to use urllib2. The tricky thing is that
the thread that got the post from them in the first place will be
blocked waiting for their response.

But are you understanding the API correctly? I would expect the
"VERIFIED" to either be in their POST to your listener (to indicate
that the payor's payment method is valid), or that it would be in your
response to that POST to tell paypal that this looks like a valid
payment (the payment amount or item quantities haven't been hacked,
etc.).

But you could be right.
