To be DKIM compliant a DKIM-Signature header is required and
I have no DKIM-Signature signature header in the mail. So
sender is DKIM-compliant is wrong.

# dig +short txt makequickmed.com
"spf2.0/pra ip4:0.0.0.0/0 ?all"
"v=spf1 ip4:0.0.0.0/0 ?all"

I think a SPF record with ip4:0.0.0.0/0 should be considered to be
the opposite what SPF is for and a such misappropriation should be
treated on the contrary as a strong indication that the sender is a
spammer and should conduct to a spf=fail result.
Same for all too permissive records as  a=.com ip4:124.0.0.0/8 an so on
(less than /16 for ipv4 should be treated as a SPF misappropriation)

For exemple here are the gmail spf

# dig +short TXT gmail.com
"v=spf1 redirect=_spf.google.com"

# dig +short TXT _spf.google.com
"v=spf1 include:_netblocks.google.com include:_netblocks2.google.com
include:_netblocks3.google.com ~all"

# dig +short TXT _netblocks.google.com
"v=spf1 ip4:64.18.0.0/20 ip4:64.233.160.0/19 ip4:66.102.0.0/20
ip4:66.249.80.0/20 ip4:72.14.192.0/18 ip4:74.125.0.0/16
ip4:108.177.8.0/21 ip4:173.194.0.0/16 ip4:207.126.144.0/20
ip4:209.85.128.0/17 ip4:216.58.192.0/19 ip4:216.239.32.0/19 ~all"

# dig +short TXT _netblocks2.google.com
"v=spf1 ip6:2001:4860:4000::/36 ip6:2404:6800:4000::/36
ip6:2607:f8b0:4000::/36 ip6:2800:3f0:4000::/36 ip6:2a00:1450:4000::/36
ip6:2c0f:fb50:4000::/36 ~all"

# dig +short TXT _netblocks3.google.com
"v=spf1 ip4:172.217.0.0/19 ~all"
