Hi Guido,
First off sendtodropbox.com is not us and is in now way associated with Dropbox, so I really recommend not inputting any personal data into that website.
Secondly why do you need to email to your Dropbox account? You can add files to your Dropbox account in a number of ways, you can use the desktop application by just dragging and dropping files in the Dropbox folder on your computer and they will be uploaded automaticallly for you.
You can also use the web uploader to add files to your account, so if you are on any computer, you login to your account and upload files, just make sure to logout again if it's not your computer. ;)
We have a super nice Help Centre article here showing you how to upload to your account.

Hi Fearg,
I am using Dropbox with our 'community' which constist of computer-nitwits. I do not want to learn new things to these people (most of them are older than 70 years).
Because most of the documents are static, it should be appreciated they can e-mail it to Dropbox.
Now I ask them to mail it to me.
Thanks your reply.
Regards,
Guido
