Got an "IMMEDIATE ATTENTION REQUIRED" email from PayPal?

PayPal has recently been sending out the below email to those who use Pancake for PayPal payments. This is not a cause for concern. PayPal is updating their SSL certificate and the only people who would be affected are people running Pancake on servers that haven't been updated in at least 10 years (which wouldn't understand the newer, more secure certificate). Pancake's own website already uses the same type of SSL certificate that PayPal is now switching to, so if there was a problem with your server, you'd have noticed because Pancake wouldn't have been able to install or update itself.
