Identifying legitimate emails from the iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/HT201679 - lacking in specifics, the next link is better:

Apple e-mails address you by your real name, not something like "Dear Customer" or "Dear Client".

Apple e-mails originate from @apple.com or @itunes.com

Mouse over links to see if they direct to real Apple web sites.
