 * Hello,
 * I am receiving duplicate new order emails. I know this is because my WooCommerce
   shop is supposedly receiving both PDT and IPN notifications, the only problem
   is.
 * I have disabled IPN email notifications in the payment settings in WooCommerce
   and I have selected “Do not receive IPN messages (Disabled)” in my PayPal account.
   However when I look at my order, it says “IPN payment completed” in my order 
   notes above the PDT notification.
 * I believe this could be some sort of bug because I do not receive duplicate emails
   with every order most just have one PDT but maybe one in five get both. So I’m
   just curious if there is something I may have missed?
 * Thanks,
 * Alex.

 * Hi [@loopdedoop](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loopdedoop/),
 * Apologies on the late response on this issue. If you are still having them, you
   should configure PayPal to use IPN only. PDT is commonly used a backup if for
   some reason you cannot get IPN to work, with both enabled at the same time it
   will likely be verifying purchases twice and thus sending out 2 emails.
 * Enabling only IPN should resolve this for you. If you have questions let us know!
