That doesnt look like a phishing email - the domain etc. is genuine. 

If you mouse over the links (without clicking on them) it should tell you where they go. 

Its also worth checking out http://www.dropbox.com/plan to see what it says - because as the email says if you are charged after a trial it is non refundable.
