Turn off Transfer e-mail notifications

Turn off Transfer e-mail notifications

Please make all kinds of notifications deactivate-able. There's an immense amount of notifications getting from the slightest thing. I sincerely can't cope with the fact that I'm getting an email for a transfer being created and then get several other emails, one for each and every download one specific transfer gets. It's exhausting that I can only turn off notifications per file, but even for that I need to go online on the Transfer page, find the file, do the thing. People tend to download their files a bunch of times. They view it once, but then misplace them, or forget where it is etc and download it several times. Guess what? I'm flooded with pointless emails. In-app notifications are suffice.

@Seaman13, in the meantime, what you can try as a workaround, is to unsubscribe from these emails (via your email address), so that you no longer receive them in your inbox. 

 

Hope this helps!

Please make a way to turn of transfer notifications. They are driving me insane.

I'm so surprised that a program as popular as Dropbox doesn't have a setting option to turn off individual notifications.

In particular, I use the sharing function in Dropbox a lot, and I receive a notification by email every time I create a Dropbox transfer link.

I hope that the developer team will add a feature to turn off this notification.

I searched and found that there are users who have been requesting this feature for several years, but the feature has not been added yet.

 

Please be sure to add it with interest.

please make that possible .. it's unbelievable annoying if you transfer data to several people and they start downloading ..
