Introduction
This document describes the parties that are emailed as notifications of events occurring in the Payment system.
It also describes where the system obtains the email addresses of these parties, which is dependent on the type of messages being sent, i.e. Asynchronous acknowledgements, condition status update notifications, etc.
Signing Certificate
The email address is obtained from the signing certificate(s) of the payment instruction messages. The SubjectAltName extension in these certificates contains the email address.
These addresses are used when asynchronous acknowledgements are sent. Both the Buyer and Seller can receive email notifications of these type of acknowledgements:
