don't use random, use somethign repeatable instead eg:

   ${listextract{${eval:1+(${base62d:${substr_14_2:$message_exim_id}}%5)}}{\
    10.0.0.1:10.0.0.2:10.0.0.3:10.0.0.4:10.0.0.5}{$value}{10.0.0.1}}


Here the feactional-seconds part of $message_exim_id is used as a
repeatable pseudo-random number. the range is (0..499)

you can possibly use the sha1 function to get repeatable pseudo-random
values by salting the ip-address with the exim-id of the message.

 interface = ${lookup sqlite {SQLITE_Q_USERINTERFACE select ip from \
     interface where active='Y' \
     order by sha1(ip || '${quote_sqlite:$message_exim_id}' ) \
     limit 1}{$value}}
