    Hi Jay

     

    Worked it out now (I think) if I send it from Gmail on my apple email client it doesn't work, but if I send it from the webmail it does.

     

    Thanks

Hi beegee49, thanks for posting on the Community!

Are you referring to this app to email files to your Dropbox account?

Are you getting any error messages or other information?

This will help me to assist further!

Thanks, yes that's the app, I've activated but I'm not seeing the Dropbox symbol in the bottom corner.

        When I follow your link to the app, it says "not allowed by your team, go to the admin console".  I am the admin and when I go to admin console, cannot find the "email to dropbox" app (or anything similar) on the app list.  Please point me in the right direction!
