I've also seen Google provide this error when a domain had a
spammer/phisher attempt to spoof said domain several hundred thousand
times. Since Google saw their domain in the RFC5321.Mailfrom, even though
the messages weren't authenticated and were rejected as per their DMARC
policy, the domain's mere existence in the RFC5321.Mailfrom for SPF was
enough to tank their reputation with Google to abysmal levels.

I'd suggest checking their DMARC reporting historical data (if available)
to see if this potentially occurred recently.
