The sender isn't *[email protected]

When I buy something paying with Google Checkout, Google provides the
vendor with a single-purpose *[email protected] address that they
can use to reach me. The vendor sends mail to that address and Google
forwards it to me.  I tried sending an email to a bogus
checkout.l.google.com address with a Bcc to my gmail address. The copy
to the To address was rejected of course, but the Bcc arrived in my mail
box with headers that I can't distinguish from the mail that I got from
a vendor that was sent to me via the real checkout.l.google.com address.
The MX records for gmail.com and l.google.com are the same.

Of course I can whitelist the vendor, but what I'm trying to do is
figure out if it is possible to find some characteristic of the email
that can be used for a general nice rule for such Google Checkout
forwarded mail.
