    Hi Peter

    I recommend following up on the ticket if you still have questions - however, I believe your core issue with the White Space conflict may be something that would need to be investigated in the future as a new feature within Dropbox (rather than a bug).

Hi Peter,

Thanks for contacting Dropbox support. It is my understanding you wish to request the feature of being able to save files of similar names with spaces.

I will be sending your ticket up as a feature request. As you already know saving files with names only different through a space is not something Dropbox allows t this time.

This will not be changed simply by the request of 1 user, but with this feature requested by numerous people it's likely Dropbox will listen and develop a resolution if one is possible.

If you have any additional questions or concerns please let me know.

Regards,
Max
