You can't. If setting up auto-forward requires verification of the email address, you won't be able to forward to the Dropbox-generated email. You can only receive attachments at the email address. The text/body of an email sent to that address is not retained.

For activation of the Gmail Auto-Forward/Filter-Function, a verification code is sent from Gmail directly to the AddToDropbox-Address (***@addtodropbox.com).
Currently there seems to be no possibility to get access to the content (and therefore the confirmation code) of it - as it contains no attachment it gets lost in universe.
Due to this, it is currently not possible to activate the redirection, which would be very useful for any kind of bills and so on.
Maybe a section underneath the 'AddToDropbox'-Settings could be added where the e.g. last 3 received emails can be accessed in full text view.
Thanks in advance,

Hey raphaelamann, thanks for posting on our Community!
Can you please clarify if you're referring to the Dropbox Gmail Integration or if you had something else in mind, like the Email to Dropbox feature?
If you could also provide some additional information about what you'd like to accomplish or what you'd like to see implemented, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!
