No.  DKIM is a way for an MTA, generally the originating MTA, to sign a
message with a key belonging to a domain.   A verifier looks up the key
in DNS and checks this.   So you can get DKIM validity of the From:
field, or of the envelope.

For your message as received through the list, several rules fired:

  DKIM_SIGNED,DKIM_VALID,DKIM_VALID_AU

but not DKIM_VALUD_EF.   This is actually rare because the SA list is
one of only a few that does not modify the Subject: or add junk to the
message, both of which break the signature.

I recently received another message, via groups.io, which had
DKIM_VALID_EF but no DKIM signature  on the author.

None of this has anything to do with SPF, but read about DMARC which is
sort of like SPF but can say "messages should have DKIM signatures".
And then after not being happy about mailing lists that break messages,
read about ARC.   This will not be quick...
