Yes, I checked my email's spam folder and haven't received a confirmation email yet. Regarding the email address, I used the same one associated with my Dropbox account, so there shouldn't have been any discrepancy there.

Besides checking your email’s spam folder, I’d also suggest adding no-reply@dropbox.com to your email contacts, in order to make sure the address is whitelisted.
Other than that, you’d need to check in with the user who opened the file request.
