I am seeing the same problem.  I receive messages showing ".. invited to view..." from no-reply@dropbox.com with a verify request .I click on the "add to Dropbox" but the email never appears.  I am testing with 2 accounts each on a windows 10 system using my gmail account and a private domain account.

Hey David Batchelor! It sounds like another user has sent you a request to access a shared file/folder (which is different to what the OP mentioned). 

 

Are you also trying to verify your Dropbox email address, as outlined here?

 

Otherwise, you should be able to access your shared content via the Shared tab of your Dropbox account.
