Since sympa uses the normal syslog facilities, you can do it centrally
there. We use rsyslog with this in /etc/rsyslog.d/00-anonymize_logs.conf

$ModLoad mmanon
action(type="mmanon" ipv4.bits="32" ipv4.mode="zero" ipv6.bits="128"
ipv6.anonmo
de="zero")

More info at
https://www.rsyslog.com/doc/v8-stable/configuration/modules/mmanon.html

IIRC syslog-ng also has a way to do it.
