I've only used it a few times, and it was all one off things. You can't
share the folder, but you can go into the web version of dropbox and get
the public link email and it works.

I've used MMAIL and Send to Dropbox to do some one off sending of
files before. Always worked fine for me.

attachment is painless. Thanks for the idea!
Sending an e-mail is indeed very easy. Just be aware that, depending on
what you're using to send your e-mail to Dropbox, you might not be able
to send your file to an arbitrary folder.
For example, Kevin mentioned "Send to Dropbox" which I think means
https://sendtodropbox.com/
Looks very nice, looks very easy to use. But you apparently can't dump
your file into a shareable area. See "Can I share my Attachments
folder?" in the FAQ:
https://sendtodropbox.com/faq
A lot of folks are apparently using IFTTT ("If This Then That") to hook
up e-mail to Dropbox. Seems like it may be more flexible, but I haven't
used it myself.
