.. I'd suggest anything that shows gmailapi.google.com in the header be rejected -- at least until Google can get a handle on the abuse.

E.g.;

Received: from .* named unknown by gmailapi.google.com with HTTPREST;

Thanks for the clue!

Actually it's not looking good in my archives. I'm apparently already rejecting nearly all of the mail with HTTPREST or gmailapi in a Received header, or it's just not hitting any of my mailboxes, which are spread around a diversity of systems. I'm only seeing some older (14-month+) legitimate discussion list mail and 1-1 business communication. Some of the latter is actually spam (FE: Cloudflare salesthing hitting an address NO ONE should be selling to) but most is legit, including customer mail to a support@ address at one of my clients.
