Hi
i haven't used lately my dropbox account. I know the login and the password. However, i cannot login because a 6 digit code keeps being sent to the email address. Problem is my registered e-mail account is not working anymore because the e-mail client has shutdown permanently.
All the help topics say to login and go to setting. However, we cannot login.
Can anyone help me please?

Without access to the email address, you won't be able to sign in. The only possibilities are if you already have another active device linked to the Dropbox account that can receive the code, or if you can gain access to the email address again.
