You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
When sending a file through Dropbox Transfer, you get notified everytime a file will expire within 2 days. When you send all of your work to your clients through Dropbox Transfer, you get quite a lot of these e-mails and they start to clutter up your inbox.
It would be practical to have control over all notifications related to Dropbox Transfer in the settings.
Hello.
It would be helpful if there was a way to turn off email notifications for expired Dropbox Transfer files.
There needs to be a way to turn of transfer notifications. It's driving me insane!
As someone who is using dropbox transfer more to transfer large design files to clients multiple times per day, the volume of 'You created a transfer" and "Your transfer expires soon" emails are driving me insane. A button where we could switch these off for all transfers would be amazing (and save my inbox from clutter!).
It seems like on-line services are waging a war against us with emails as their weapon. Any signing up or service that I'm using is immediately bombarding me with emails to the point that I regret using it. Hope for good news here.

Status changed:NewtoGathering Support I agree. it would be more than sufficient to store these notifications with the original transfer.
Ideally, we would have a global setting with the option to override on a transfer by transfer basis.
Please create a way to turn these notifications off!
Great idea ! Need more votes !
You can currently turn-off almost all types of notifications except for when someone downloads a file you've sent via Dropbox Transfer. So even though I have all notifications turned off, I still get a "number badge" on my Dropbox taskbar icon when someone downloads a transfer, and I have to click open the Dropbox pop-up menu to dismiss it. Could we please have the option to disable this notification like all the others? Thanks
Yes yes yes, please make it more comfortable and let us set up what and when we will get notifications!
I don't want to get an email when it's about to expire, when it's been downloaded, etc. I just want to send it and be done.
awful that you can't do this. I made a rule in outlook to send all emails from "dropbox transfer" directly into the trash. An email when i make the transfer, an email when it's downloaded, and an email when it's about to expire, and an email if it didnt get downloaded - what the heck were they thinking?
