The only problem I have encountered with Pay Pal is my wife had signed up
for the account with our home address.  When I use it is always says address
unconfirmed and sometimes creates a question as to the validity of my being
able to use it and it is always says to ship to my wife's name and home
address.  I tried to get my name on the account as well but they claim they
can't do that.  So I wanted to get my own account but they say "one account
per e-mail address".  Oh well, I've learned to live with it.
