The issue is that it's being shared from the same account. I know about Shared Folders and use them extensively.

In a nutshell, here's what I want: - Install Dropbox - configure account #1 : mypersonalemail@example.com - configure account #2 : myworkemail@example.com

I don't want anyone at work seeing my personal email because it is, well, personal. No-one at work should need to know about my personal stuff unless it really is personal. Dropbox doesn't seem to understand the value of this.

I want to keep my work life and my personal life separate and many new services don't seem to understand or value this.

Ah, now I see what you mean... I circumvented this by using my work email to have invitations sent to, but accepting them from my personal account. I'm not sure if the people in the share can see my email address, though.
That's what I want to avoid - I prefer to not have to think about it at all.
