No, the addresses passed via -f are for the envelope-from, not for the message
headers (the envelope-from is used during the SMTP negotiation and this is
where the message should bounce to if it's not delivered).

That said, I don't know how sendgmr works internally, and since it doesn't
claim to be sendmail-compatible, the flags and how it treats them can be
anything, really.
