I hope this clarifies!

I'm still confused. I uploaded a pdf to my Dropbox account in order to be able to view it away from my home. Your email makes it sound like I used your transfer function, which I've never noticed before. If you're not going to delete Megan's file(s) what is the purpose of this email. Sorry, I'm confused.

Hey jdannixon, I hope you're doing well!
I'm not entirely sure about the situation here, but I'll do my best to figure everything out.
You mentioned an email, and Megan's files(s), which I'm not entirely sure what the exact email that you received is, or the file you're referring to.
If you have any screenshots, feel free to send them over, in order for me to have a visual.
Keep me posted!
