      </form>
    <script>document.forms['_xclick'].submit();</script>

for some mysterious reason when i check PayPal IPN history the notify URL is empty and of course that payment is not being processed on my system (attached the PayPal message info). Message delivery is Enabled and as URL i have written http://www.xxxxxxx.com/?pplstatus=IPN

What am i doing wrong here ?

This is a known issue that we're currently working to resolve. IPN messages will still send as normal, but the IPN history page may not reflect the right state / notify_url details.
