Why am I getting the 'user wants to join your Dropbox team' emails?

Hey iviansur, let me also jump in here! 

 

There isn't an exact setting that allows you to achieve exactly what you mentioned. 

 

However, you can change the default permissions for shared links, prevent members from sharing externally or set an expiration for new links shared outside your team by visiting the settings found in your Admin Console. 

 

If you need something else, please let me know and I will be more than happy to help every step of the way.

Hi Megan. Thanks, but these options aren't suitable. At least there is a "Default permissions for shared links" setting. It would be great to expand it. Anyway, thanks all for your help!
