I was assuming that your Postfix server has a proper hostname with
reverse DNS that resolves to that hostname, and a domain name that
is under your control. That has been a requirement for 20 years
already. Then that would be an excellent choice for the From:

If there is only one authorized sender, then you could pipe the
message through a script that replaces the authorized From: address
with the desired one, before feeding the message into mlmmj.
