You can remove all contacts imported from third-party services, but there's no way to remove or edit individual entries. Instead, you'll need to just type the correct email address when you need to share something with that person.

    It sounds like you have to start all over with the sharing process. Can't believe that the dropbox team does not have a fix for this. Please give us the ability to delete individuals and edit email address...

      I am afraid it has been like this for quite a number of years now. I wouldn't expect it to change anytime soon. Your not starting over, simply invite the new email address or rather the correct address to the already established shared folder/file.
