You can't in general.
(1) You can get it to remove it again later, by putting
headers_remove = Sender
on all your transports. However, this doesn't test for locally
originated mail. Unfortunately, owing to an oversight, headers_remove
is not an expanded string in the released Exim. I've fixed that in the
testing releases, so one could do some tests for local mail in the
expansion (e.g. no value for $sender_host_address).
(2) However, is your *real* question "how do I submit mail from UUCP
without it adding Sender"? If so, the answer is to set trusted_users to
the user under which the UUCP submission runs.

I can't remember what visible_name was! This is either related to
qualify_domain, or some kind of address rewriting rule.
