Full Description:
Due to changes being made by Qualtrics to improve email delivery, starting September 1, 2019, when using the Qualtrics Mailer in Cornell's survey service, it will be necessary to use as the "From Address" one of the following:
The default "From Address" of invitation@surveys.mail.cornell.edu
Or
An address set up in advance by contacting surveys@cornell.edu. These addresses will generally be a multipart Cornell address resembling the default, or when available, a college or departmental email address (these resemble @departmentname.cornell.edu).

Also, Qualtrics will only send invitations whose "Reply-To" is an approved "From Address" or the email address of the account being used to send the invitation.

This change only affects invitations being sent using the Qualtrics Mailer within the service. Sending a Qualtrics anonymous survey link when using a different mail service is not affected.

To be able to send Qualtrics survey invitations from an address other than invitation@surveys.mail.cornell.edu, contact surveys@cornell.edu to begin the process of setting one up.
