Sample headers would help.
By "for" do you mean the envelope recipient address in the Received:
header(s)? Those are not added by all MTAs, and _discarding_ (vs. just
adding a point for) any mail where the envelope recipient address does not
match the header To: address (what you seem to be suggesting) would
prevent you from receiving legitimate blind carbon copies from anyone.
Is that truly what you want?
