Team members receiving emails inviting them to edit the folders I uploaded
Morning All
I have uploaded folders this morning and everyone within the Dropbox group have had an email from myself (via Dropbox) inviting them to edit said folder.

Hi everyone! I'm the Product Manager for this feature. Thank you all for the feedback! We are planning to update this so the default checkbox is OFF. When you (or team members) create a new team folder, you'll have to check the box if you want to notify other members of the shared folder you have created a new folder
Our engineering team is in the middle of this update so this should be rolled out in the next week or 2. Thank you again everyone for your feedback and patience!

Dropbox StaffHi there BillGr - thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Just to make sure we're on the same page, are you referring to in-app notifications, bell notifications on the website or email notifications?
Also, are you a team admin or a team member?
Let us know more and we'll take it from there.
Hello!
When i click on groups/members there are 24 of us and it lists all of us as "members". I don't see an admin title on anyone(myself included).
Everyone in the group is receiving email notifications and app notifications on their phone for each item I upload.
Before this weekend users did receive email notifications but not phone app updates.

Hey BillGr and dealersubmit, you might want to take a look at this idea for further info on this.
I hope this helps.
Hannah Sorry, this is not helpful as it is just linked to an idea and not a solution. I am looking for an answer as to why this happened recently and how to fix it. I need to have my members have access to our folders but we don't need everyone receiving a bunch of email notifications for every action done within Dropbox. We need this to stop as it is massively clogging our systems.
Hello Hannah,
I have not seen any updates about this. Can you give us a status update? I have a lot of people that are unhappy with this change.
