  I have noticed a weird behavior with PayPal.
  When paying a CiviEvent with PayPal I do not get any confirmation mail and the Status is "Pending (incomplete transaction)" while the payment goes still through.
  But when paying a donation with PayPal everything works fine. The status is Completed.
  
  Does anyone have ideas what could be the problem? The Log does not give me any hint.
  Thanks in advance.
