Hey MoniqueShi, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
To receive an email notification that your file was uploaded, you'll need to upload the file while logged in to a verified Dropbox account.
If you're uploading while not logged in, your email address needs to be linked to a verified Dropbox account, to receive the notification.
Could this be why you're not receiving it?
Let me know what you find.

Are you able to check in your system if my file was uploaded successfully?

I did not login while sharing a file. I have a doubt if I entered my email id wrong. Need to confirm if my file reached the receiver.

Harris T Rajan , can you describe the steps you took to share your file? Generally, to share a Dropbox file/folder with someone else, you need to be signed in to your Dropbox account.
If you opened a file request, you can see more details about it here.

Hi Itsteeshagreen, could you check your spam/junk folder in your inbox, and also try adding no-reply@dropbox.com to your contacts list for the next time?

I closed my uploading window too quickly and am not sure if "uploading finished" - but I did see an graphic of a guy running through a finish line.... does that mean it went through??
