Joining a Business team, and what is the best way to do that?
I have a personal dropbox under a personal email, but now my new company wants me to join and share their dropbox. How do I best do that? Do I need a totally new account with a different email addres...

I don't want my client to liaise with me via a second email.. I also don't wish to set up another email account purely for them ... any solutions?
Ask them to invite you to a shared folder, rather than inviting you to join their team. If you join their team with your existing account, your account will be merged into theirs, effectively making them the owner of your account, and you would receive a prorated refund for the time remaining on your Plus subscription.
If they just invite you to join a shared folder, none of that applies. You keep your account, you continue to liaise with your existing email, and you get access to anything located within the shared folder.
If they require that you join their team, your only two options are to join with your existing account and merge into the team, or use a second email address to create a new account and use that to join the team.
Thank you!! I will ask them to cancel the invite and invite me instead to a shared folder (or multiple)...
I already do that with other (smaller) clients, it's just that this one in particular has a business account
