I'm relatively new to DropBox, and I'm using DropBox Basic, with no interest in upgrading to Pro at this time. A client has shared a folder with me that includes many subfolders, and I have just reached my space limit. I'd like to leave some of those subfolders to open up some space. Is this possible, and how do I do it? Is the only solution to leave that top-level folder? If so, will that interfere with the client's ability to share with me more subfolders of that top-level share in future? I need to be able to let the client share new subfolders, while I drop older subfolders to maintain a reasonable amount of space.
Thanks!

Hello,
I got (and accept) invite to use shared folder (I am not the owner).
I would like to cancel the permission I got through the dropbox website - not through the windows app.
I don't want anything will be deleted from the folder. I would like just to cancel my permission using the folder
How can I do it?
Thanks.
