Auto-notify collaborators when a file is uploaded to a folder
The folder owner should be able to create an email notification for all subscribers to the folder to receive a notification when a new file is uploaded to Box.
The email would be sent to the user's email on file for that Box folder. The user would not have to update his/her own settings. The folder owner would set notifications, and the user would have to turn them off if too frequent.
The scenario is that a shared Box folder with <10 users. The users are generally infrequent users of Box, so do not proactively check on the folder frequently. A push notification (email) that something is updated will help an Admin significantly to manage the project and ensure that everyone knows the new data was uploaded.
Thank you.

I would like to suggest that copying a file into a folder be included in the email notifications to collaborators of a file. It doesn't make sense that is not included below.
"preview, downloads, uploads, delete, and add a comment are the activity that collaborators will get a notification. (if these are enabled to their folder settings) "
