Not receiving emails from dropbox.
We have multiple users who are not receiving emails from dropbox.com. These emails range from the email to verify your email, password resets link, and the login links. I have checked our spam filter and I do not see any signs of this emails being blocked. Is someone at dropbox able to look into this email deliverability issue for us?

If I look at my domain host's control centre I see that email to [Removed as per Community Guidelines] is set to be forwarded to my gmail account. And indeed when I send from a completely different domain to [Removed as per Community Guidelines] email is received. What's Dropbox's problem ?

Hi DDunce, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
If you're receiving this message from Dropbox, then it means that somehow the domain is blocking emails from Dropbox, or other official domains.
I'd recommend checking the list and your settings in your email provider to ensure that the above domains are allowed through, and that no emails are blocked.
If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.

Thanks for that Jay. There are no relevant settings in my account and other messages get through so I suspect the issue may be at the domain level. I had similar problems with a handful of domains sending via Gmail until I added DKIM and SPF records to my account, and I suspect Dropbox may need to do something similar. Alas I don't know how to speak with anyone with sufficient power and knowedge !
