Is the email: em-s.dropbox.com legitimate? [Answer: Yes]
I have received an e-mail telling me of a new document available for me in Dropbox. The e-mail is from an address that ends with " em-s.dropbox.com ". Can anybody confirm that " em-s. " is a valid ad...

Hi Everybody,
I can confirm that these emails were sent from the Dropbox domain and are not harmful. This is one of the official domains Dropbox uses to send out emails. You can find the full list of domains here: https://help.dropbox.com/security/official-domains.
You can safely ignore them, though there was no negative impact to your account if you did click through the emails. You should not receive anymore emails of this type.
Regards,
Ben

I received the same email on my gmail but I only have a Dropbox account associated with outlook email. Something is definitely off. Gmail also shows that it is verified by the sender. Reporting it as spam.

Got an email this morning with the subject "Files shared with you" from no-reply@em-s.dropbox.com with a "continue" button to click to the shared files. I searched and got different results regarding the email address being legit. At any rate, I am an infrequent user with a basic account and there doesn't seem to be anything new in my account, checked on my computer. I have not clicked the link from the email. Why would Dropbox send this message if there is no new activity? It seems suspicious, and wondering if it is scam.

GAE1, did you receive an email about a new file being shared with you, or about your Dropbox account going over-quota? If it's the latter, can you clarify how much space you're currently using?
How many emails like this have you received so far?
