In the Qualtrics emailer, the opt out link is accepted in a certain format – ${l://OptOutLink?d=opt%20out%20link} or ${l://OptOutURL}&OptOut=dir. If we use these links then opt-in and opt-out information of a user goes to Qualtrics and not Eloqua which is our own email system.
We want to use custom opt out link in Qualtrics mailer so that the opt-in and opt-out information flows into Eloqua keeping it as the single source of information for our organization. Therefore, we tried the below method:

Your own opt-out link would be:

The Qualtrics opt-out link has to remain in the message. You can modify the wording to be clearer about the difference between the different opt-out links. You can also hide the Qualtrics opt-out with html but it won't be hidden in all email clients.

A couple of follow-up questions:
1) Why does the Qualtrics opt-out link have to be in the message? Is that a legal requirement?
2) Does Qualtrics handle the generation of their opt-out link differently than the survey link? I've got an issue where I've used identical HTML code to create "buttons" for the survey and opt-out links. The survey link generates as expected, but the opt-out link doesn't appear to populate. Qualtrics support seemed stumped and suggested I ask the Community.

Yes, I believe it is. Even if it isn't, it is common courtesy, and would reflect badly on Qualtrics if users didn't include it.

Hard to tell without seeing the actual html.
