Dropbox API add_folder_member's quiet parameter not honored for "Everyone at [TEAM NAME]" group

Using the Dropbox-API-Select-Admin header, all members of the special "Everyone at [TEAM NAME]" group receive an email notification when they are added to a team folder using https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/sharing/add_folder_member, even when passing quiet = true.

Is there a way to silence those notifications?

    Using the "quiet" parameter is the right way to suppress the email, so this just sounds like a bug on our side. We'll look into it. I'll let you know when we have an update on this. Thanks!
