How to add a new email contact to the suggested people list

Hi

 

Just uploaded a new folder to my freee dropbox account and have trouble sharing it.

When I get to the suggested people list, there are some issues:

 

1) I need to add a new email to the list, but just cannot find a way to do it.

2) One of the people I want to invite shows an email address that he doesnt want to use. How can I change it to the desired email address

    There's now way to edit or delete an individual contact. You can delete them all, but that's it. To add a contact you just need to share something with them, or tag them in a Paper document.

    Just type the actual email address that you want to share it with.
