If you visit www.google.com/accounts and login with your Gmail credentials, there is a security section where you can configure which third-party apps and services are authorized to access your Google account. Mailbox will be one of them, because when you set it up you will have given it permission to access your Gmail account. Likewise if you login to Dropbox.com, you can visit your app settings to unlink Mailbox from your Dropbox account so it doesn't have permission to access or save files to your Dropbox. If you've used other apps such as AccessNote or the Dropvox recording app, they'll be listed there as well. Let me know if you need some more specific directions.
