If the two ips are 1.1.1.1 and 2.2.2.2, in your smtp transport add this:
interface = ${extract{${eval:$tod_epoch%2+1}}{:}{1.1.1.1:2.2.2.2}}
It's not totally random, which ip is returned depends on whether or not
the number of seconds since the epoch is odd or even. If you add further
IPs to the list, make sure to change the "%2" to match the number
