The email said it was from invites at mailer.surveygizmo.com<mailto:invites at mailer.surveygizmo.com> and the IP address of the SMTP server was for this domain while the survey link itself was for https://qsurvey.mozilla.com/.

Mike and I exchanged email off the list about this and I wanted to post the response:

>From the team

Oh, it looks like they were visiting support.mozilla.com<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__support.mozilla.com_&d=DwMFaQ&c=2WwxlqHD_9GeHFEUsOHZXg&r=a0pF-r4VjZCyzB4zxbRDcONPyw-KRRoDiBPd4lDRky8&m=XGR1D1S_XeEyY5WN-zpUHnj51jgAraTLIU6yZo04fLo&s=2a5yL1WnQ8spHVHHGors05NEcrz9TiCKHEaHqcAYlDo&e=> and entered their e-mail in the survey pop-up there. Then they received the e-mail with the actual survey. There was an issue where the e-mails were not being sent out, and that was resolved this morning, so they probably entered their e-mail address a while ago and the survey e-mail was just sent out today.

But it's legit and directly in response to them entering their e-mail address

Subject: Mozilla Survey or Phishing/Attack Attempt?

Is Mozilla conducting some type of survey from qsurvey.mozilla.com?  I ask because the spammy email thanked me for agreeing to participate and I have not agreed to anything of the sort.
