Send to Dropbox: Email + Dropbox

I've used this in the past but came away disappointed as it regularly breaks over attachment sizes. I was using it to store my website backups in dropbox. Instead of this, now I setup a simple python dropbox script on my webserver which allows me to do few good things: 1. No connecting to third party apps. 2. No need to go through email servers, I can directly store the backups to dropbox 3. I still added an email addon layer on it for other usage where I send the files to my own mail server and the script then puts them into dropbox.

There's an IFTTT recipe for this, which lets you use your own email address: <a href="https://ifttt.com/recipes/39" rel="nofollow">https://ifttt.com/recipes/39</a>

Nice. I was thinking about trying to do something like this but with one small added feature. The ability to automatically share the file and inform a group of users that a new file has been shared.<p>If you could setup groups and then once the file is uploaded to dropbox notify the people that belong to the group (either have a separate address per group or perhaps parse the subject for which groups should be notified).

The title is confusing because the dash can be interpreted as a minus sign.

How is this better than going to dropbox.com and uploading the file?

Is there a similar recipe/app to send files to Google Drive?
