Specs met, but still: IPN was not sent, and the handshake was not verified. Please review your information

I've been trying to integrate my website with the PayPal IPN, but I've been unsuccessful so far. The Paypal documentation HERE: SSL Certificate Upgrade Microsite entails some specifications that need be met. My server supports SHA-256 and uses VeriSign G2 Root Certificate as well. I've installed SSL on this domain too, but still I get nothing with the Paypal IPN.

I have a file IPNSampleCode.php at (NOT MY REAL WEBSITE) https://XYXYXYX.com/IPN/IPNSampleCode.php which is supposed to be called by the Instant Payment Notification (IPN) Simulator, but I keep getting 'IPN was not sent, and the handshake was not verified. Please review your information. ' whenever I run the IPN simulator against the IPN handler URL 'https://XYXYXYX.com/IPN/IPNSampleCode.php'

What could I be missing, or what might I be doing wrong?

Thank you for contacting PayPal Merchant Technical Services, I apologize for the delay in responding to your email.

We are aware of this issue with our IPN Simulator and our development team is working on a fix. Until this issue is fixed, I'd suggest running your IPN tests by making payments in Sandbox as we do send IPN requests with every payment.

If you have a similar issue with your payment tests, please let us know and we can take a look.

My apologies for the inconvenience caused.
