Detail's are your friend. I would recommend posting your dns txt record that you have for spf. And posting a example of where you think spf is not working correctly.

hi

please see below
the ip address is an actual ip address but i masked it

The TXT records found for your domain are:
v=spf1 ip4:154.*.*.* include:spf.protection.outlook.com a:mail-eopbgr40110.outbound.protection.outlook.com -all

also attached screenshot with the email headers

I completely understand the need to sanitize, but it's hard for me to follow along with it that way. I don't expect you to trust me, but maybe talk to one of the moderators, and have them look at the unsanitized version so they can help further.

From what I can tell though is spf=none, which is same as accept. So maybe you don't have the txt record in the right place? Should be under the primary domain

i am wondering why are you using office 365 spf record to send out using your EFA?
please provide more details if you need support.

wihtout info/details/screenshot we wont be able to help.

SPF records /IP are published ips which means you dont have to mask them, everyone on the internet can find them.
