    Thanks for the response John.  Yes those codes take a bit memorizing
which I haven't
done either.  The ES is Authorization and Deposit and the EV additionally
performs
Address Verification in addition to credit card verification and deposit.

    I have a feeling to turn on address verification will require some
configuration change in
IC but I couldn't find anything that discussed this.  I do have telnet
(SSH) access and I have
looked at ECHO.pm but didn't realize that Order.pm and Payment.pm were
involved
with each transaction along with ECHO.pm. The things I'm wondering about
are...
How to enable address verification in IC and if an address doesn't
completely verify
then will it automatically fail the transaction or can you let it slip
by,,,

    Any general insight or pointers to payment processing documentation
appreciated.

Jon
