Dropbox Dash support for macOS apps like Mail and Calendar

Very disappointed that Dropbox Dash does not currently support Apple Mac OS applications such as Mail and Calendar. Dropbox Dash is so Google centric it is useless for a Mac User who has 80,000 emails and 10 years of calendar events. Also needs to support Fantastical calendar. Also, the app shows support for Evernote but does not currently have a link.

    I have 80k+ Mac OS emails (and sub message mailboxes) in the Apple Mail App. Dropbox Dash search would allow a rapid way to find old email references. Similarly I have hundreds of items in my Apple Calendar app going back to the year 2000.

    I do not use the Google calendar app. I do use Dash search for my Google Mail items.

    I agree, I installed it and every query I run basically brings up some old stale Gmail content. From the demo I had understood that it could "read" everything across multiple platforms on my MacBook.  It does not read any of my company mail or documents on my hard drive.  I dont think it's even reading the documents on dropbox.
