Launching Dropbox App from email

My team relies heavily on the mentions featuring in dropbox to alert other team members of document updates and edits. When I receive an email alerting me that I have been mentioned on a doc, I open the email and click "reply" to review the doc and the comments. However, the email always launches the dropbox website, rather than the dropbox desktop app.

 

I would like the email to automatically open the dropbox app (not the website). The app has better functionality (better integration with word) and is easier to use. 

 

Thanks for considering this change,
