IPN with PayPal is not as hard as it sounds...There's a great PHP library out there that supports it with reasonable docs: Micah Carrick's Paypal Class. I put this on my site and the IPN code is pretty straightforward, but you may want to read the PayPal documentation about the returned data as background.

It will be quicker for you to use the paypal class than to figure out what is wrong with your code.

If you had provided all of the code set up to use the PayPal sandbox then it would be easy to take that code and duplicate the error. What you have provided isn't sufficient to do that. There is definitely more that you need to make IPN work so I assume that you have other code that you haven't provided.
