Dropbox offers 1 GB of space for linking to Mailbox app

07-mailbox_icon-300x300Dropbox sent out an email to users with an offer for more space. In celebration of their addition of iCloud and Yahoo email accounts, linking your Dropbox account with the Mailbox app for iPhone and iPad will award you an additional 1 GB of storage space on your Dropbox account. Here is the text from the Dropbox email;

“Great news! In case you haven’t heard, we’re offering 1GB of additional space to users who link their Dropbox account to Mailbox.

What’s Mailbox?
Mailbox is the newest member of the Dropbox family. It’s a redesigned email inbox for a world on the go. Mailbox uses swipe gestures and “snoozes” to help you focus on the messages that need your attention now. And today Mailbox added support for Yahoo and iCloud email accounts!

How do I get more space?
Download Mailbox here if you haven’t already, then go into Mailbox Settings and select Dropbox to link your Dropbox account. Voilà — 1GB of space will be added to your account.”

Until now, Mailbox was a Gmail-only client, which may have turned off users of other email systems, iCloud in particular. Now it remains to be seen if Mailbox can compete with the likes of Molto and Boxer, who have attempted to fill the gap while Mailbox has lagged behind in it’s support for iCloud.
