    Hi kaFxo3-zigkad-nerxyb,

    You can check this out here. See what's unusually engaging space capacity and do sanity it (and remove all unneeded).

    Hope this helps.

Hey kaFxo3-zigkad-nerxyb - sorry to jump in here, but I can see that this email is from the 12th of March - do you happen to have any emails or notifications in the app or the web that are more recent than this? 

 

If you were over your  account's quota limit back then it makes sense that you received this email; that's why I'm asking.

Hi! 

Dropbox has been sending me the same message since some while back. I took the screenshot this afternoon. In between, I've not done much on Dropbox. The most recent warning from Dropbox about my storage is today, but I haven't added anything else to Dropbox today. 

Look forward to hearing from you,

Janz
