Actually, the filter does not correspond to your description.
You reject hosts, that use a HELO argument that ends in your domain, but
are not one of the listed hosts. So this filter_sender() let pass
the mail correctly.
No sender check is made.
BTW: The terms From: and To: usually apply to the headers of the mail, in
filter_sender() you can check the envelope MAIL FROM: only.
