Hi Mark, I have similar issue.. I still have the dropbox login password, although i have lost my mailbox account (because the domain linked to the email addr has expired)
however when i login, dropbox sent confirmation code to the mailbox and prevented me to login. any advise?
You need to contact Dropbox support and see if they can help. It may not be possible, however
