Can you get any debugging information about what exactly fails?

Use ratelimit checks in an acl_smtp_starttls ACL ?
Otherwise, parse the logs for the relevant error message occuring more
than N times in a given period (look at the shipped ratelimit.pl script
for help if needed) and update a file of forbidden STARTTLS senders and
use that in combination with tls_advertise_hosts.
