Of course. It's a two-step process (well, really more, but
we'll call it two here).
1. - mail is received. There are lots of controls for
receiving mail based on recipient, originating network, or
authentication. None of the decisions to accept mail are
based on the sender (you can decide to REJECT mail based on
the sender, but not accept).
2. - mail is delivered. There are lots of controls for where
and how mail is delivered, a few of which depend on the sender.
You're not getting past step 1.

the sender address is valid only for outgoing emails not for incoming ones ?

Hello
Yes,I have two instances of postfix.
One is in /etc/postfix and another one is in /etc/postfix2 and both
works fine.
The problem is with sender dependent authentication that is configured
on the second instance and which seems inactive,meaning when second
instance of postfix receives an email that should be processed according
to those specific rules it does not for some reason.
You seem to have missed the point that sender dependent relay is for
sending mail.
The log snippet you shared earlier shows postfix not receiving the
mail, due to an invalid recipient.
This has nothing to do with the sender.
Fix the recipient first.
