Hello, I entered the right password to my Dropbox account, I also can still access my Yahoo account. But Dropbox never send me the security code, so I can't login to my Dropbox account (It's been ages since last I login to my Dropbox account, so I get why they need the security code. But the problem is the security code isn't received in my Yahoo mail).
I've tried your instruction to "forgot" my password, but still Dropbox doesn't send me the instruction for forgotten password 😞
What I think is that Dropbox can't send email to Yahoo mail?
Please help, thankyou
