The expression <> is a legal sender address that is used when sending
bounced mail to prevent further bpuncing.

FROM O'Reilly's 2nd Edition Sendmail by Bryan Costales and Eric Allman

I knew I'd seen it somewhere. Obviously what you're getting is spam, so
I think actually complaining to the real sender - who is taking
advantage of this part of the SMTP standard - is the way to go. I'm not
sure what bouncing a legitimate <> would do with your system as I've
never contemplated doing that before.
