Yes, that's what I see the headers say too - but then in gmail if you
go to "show original", it will also say "DMARC: FAIL" at the top. So
gmail seems to internally consider "no dmarc" to be a failure.

Note that it's entirely possible that your email was marked as spam
for random other reasons, but I've seen this thing before with other
cases that don't do the full dkim and dmarc setup. So I think it just
raises the likelihood of email being marked as spam.
