I think your logic is flawed. the SSL handshake can fail because of many
(temporary) reasons. If you just want to generate problems, you can try to
make that error permanent.

But the fact that secondary MX does allow TLS should mean that you were able
to pass the message to recipient server via TLS, so what's the point of
generating permanent error in this case? This is exactly what backup MX
servers are for...

There is no standard that requires TLS for MTA-to-MTA deliveries.

What is the problem?
