You can't. If setting up auto-forward requires verification of the email address, you won't be able to forward to the Dropbox-generated email. You can only receive attachments at the email address. The text/body of an email sent to that address is not retained.

hoping for this solution to be available asap as well.
docparser has overcome this obstacle in their setup.
We just need a way for dropbox to advise us of the confirmation code sent from google.
all it needs is a filter to look for the incoming email address from google for all addtodropbox addresses and then forward that email to the dropbox user.
or something like that.
good luck
