Get the email of my PayPal customer

I need to read the email of the buyer that has completed a transaction on my eCommerce site. Paypal does send me an email of notification, but does not contain the email of the buyer (Instead, it returns just the transaction-id - which takes me to my account.)

I was looking through the PayPal for Developer API, but I can't find an example to get this level of detail. Is this even possible to retrieve, and if so, how?

Paypal ipn returns the address. When you post to PayPal, they request an address by default. (Source)

no_shipping =2 is the prompt for requiring an address.
