I discovered an issue with the individual payment info link contained in the registration confirmation link. This link is supposed to be used to pay later through Paypal (or any other compatible online merchant) and to give the registered some info about the payments due.
I am using paypal, sandboxed. When I go to the link provided in the registration email, something like "http://www.xxx.com/xxx/online-payment/?id=5&fname=John", the variable dump for Paypal at the end of the page shows that many variables passed to Paypal are truncated; this issue affects the user return to the main site after the payment, and the payment cancellation url so that the main site shows a "Failure" error.
The variables "cancel_return --> http://www.xxx.com/xxx/online-payment/?&id=5&fname= " and "return --> http://www.xxx.com/xxx/online-payment/?&id=5&fname= " are the ones affected, while the variable "notify_url--> http://www.xxx.com/xxx/register-online/?id=5&event_id=&action=paypal_txn " seems to be working fine, although the event_id seems to be missing.
A corollary to this is that, despite the Paypal payment is saved in the plugin and in MySQL, and the email is sent to the user, in the payments section of the plugin there remains an "outstanding" amount. Clicking in the payments putton on the right, where all individual payments are shown, the payment is present; in order to make the "outstanding" amount return to zero, I just have to edit the payment just made and click update.
This issue regarding the "outstanding amount" is not present if the transaction through Paypal is initiated from the very same page of the registration on the site, it happens only when the transaction is started from the mail link.
