I think we had this discussion here already. I asked some similar question. My attempt was to use some fallback host in case of 5xx in some other router. I understood that it doesn't work. 5xx is definitive and final and permanent and the mail should bounce. (This doesn't mean that I agree with this theory ;-) May be you can setup something with condition = ${run{....}} and run a test in advance.
