Is this a bug? "Paypal IPNS not handled other than recurring_payments" appears when txn_type is recurring_payment_profile_created
This is a bit of a red herring. The message "Paypal IPNS not handled other than recurring_payments" is legitimate in this case. What's happening is that PayPal sends a single confirmation message upon receipt of the recurring payment request, and then later it will send "recurring" IPN messages for each recurring payment, including the first one. This single confirmation message is rightly ignored, because soon after it will come the IPN message for the first recurring payment.
