Unfortunately, there is nothing in Milter to alter the sender address,
although such an addition has been proposed.

One option is to configure your Sendmail to accept unqualified senders,
but have filter_sender check for the special cases "<>" and "-", and
reject anything else that is unqualified.

Use FEATURE(`accept_unqualified_senders') to turn off Sendmail's checks.
