The reason it is empty is that the sender address has not yet been
accepted. Exim is in the process of verifying the sender in order to
decide whether to accept it. So at this stage, there is no sender
address.
You probably need to add
verify_sender = no
to this router so that it is skipped when verifying sender addresses.
