I went through several test purchases and was not receiving any emails from WP eStore, Wishlist Member, etc.
After many hours of searching through these forums and trying all suggested fixes (links below and very helpful), I came across a reference to the Bad Behavior plugin blocking the Paypal IPN. I had this plugin activated. I looked in the log for Bad Behavior and found that Paypal was indeed blocked. See below…

A User-Agent is required but none was provided.

Bad Behavior does offer a “Whitelisting” option by putting IP or User Agent info into a file in the plugin, but in my testing it looks like Paypal uses different IPs and does not include any User Agent info. For now, Bad Behavior will stay deactivated, but I’d love it if anyone here could offer any suggestions. I’ve also sent an alert to the Bad Behavior crew…
The helpful links are found in the FAQ forum, but if you’re reading this, here ya go:

…and the blurb about Whitelisting from the Bad Behavior site:
http://www.bad-behavior.ioerror.us/documentation/wordpress/
Whitelisting
On rare occasions you may wish to whitelist a specific user agent or IP address range. To do so, edit the bad-behavior/whitelist.inc.php file, and insert the exact user agent or IP address range desired. Bad Behavior accepts single IP addresses or CIDR format address ranges. If you find something is blocked that should not be, however, please contact me so that I can look into it as well.
I hope this helps others fastrack a solution to any trouble you’re having:)
Thank you for the detailed post on this. This is why we have the “Bad Behavior” plugin on our “Plugins don’t play nice” list:
