Add control over Dropbox Transfer e-mail notifications in the settings.

Add control over Dropbox Transfer e-mail notifications in the settings.

When sending a file through Dropbox Transfer, you get notified everytime a file will expire within 2 days. When you send all of your work to your clients through Dropbox Transfer, you get quite a lot of these e-mails and they start to clutter up your inbox.

It would be practical to have control over all notifications related to Dropbox Transfer in the settings.

It's been almost three years since I posted this idea and it seems like I'm not the only one who would like to see this changed. Now that my business is growing and I am increasingly using Dropbox to transfer files, I find myself starting off each day deleting Dropbox Transfer notification e-mails. This is valuable time that could be spent on other things... I really hope this idea gets some traction so it gets noticed by the people that can actually do something about this.

Please allow an option for controlling/disabling email notifications related to Dropbox Transfer - specifically "You're transfer is complete" emails. This could be added to the already-existing Notifications area within Dropbox as a simple toggle. 

 

Excess notifications can be redundant on its own, but especially when working with a team/shared distribution email, having multiple instances of email notifications that may only pertain to one person, sent to everyone, is simply unnecessary.

Hey @Seth J, I moved your post under this already existing idea, which you can up-vote to show your support!

Surely it's time to add the ability to turn off notifications for transfers..?
How hard can it be to add another box to tick on or off in the notifications settings area..?
