I see no problem with adding a rule before the broken MTA one.

That was my first idea too, but this had the effect I described above: the round-robin servers would each in turn bounce with a 1 hour delay. (And Yahoo was still in the broken mta list.) After 8 hours the mail still didn’t get through, so I removed the rule.

From the documentation I understand that the first line that satisfies the incoming mail gets picked, and the other rules are then ignored. So the broken mta list is never checked in this case. Or is there some clever way of combining these rules?

Sounds like you are looking for something like:

racl whitelist list “broken-mta” _and_ “valid-user”
.. maybe an array of lists is listed in order...
race whitelist list “broken-mta” “valid-user"

I don’t think that is available at this time.

I do almost this by looking up the recipient 
address in a LDAP directory.
