    Sorry to hear about that, martin wendelin.

    Can you check your spam folder as well?

    If it's not there, make sure to add no-reply@dropbox.com to your email contacts, to see if that helps too.

    Keep me posted.

    Thanks for checking, Martin.

    In that case, can we send you an email, so we can take a closer look into this?

    Hi again, martin wendelin.

    We can only email you to the address linked to your Community profile; is that the email address associated with the account that has the issue?
