You aren't accidentally testing variables that were set _from_
$QueueID and $Sender and the like, in the filter_recipient routine,
only to find out that those other variables are "miraculously" empty
at filter_end time? Because that is easy to explain (using the
"GLOBAL VARIABLE LIFETIME" section in the mimedefang-filter manpage).

If you aren't, then I can only speculate that it's a sendmail 8.13.0
bug. You might try upgrading to 8.13.4. Your mimedefang version is also
fairly old, but I know 2.43 is pretty stable, we used it for about a year
I think.
