I agree. I see mentions of starting the opendkim daemon on the archlinux page Brandon \
linked to earlier and also on other Linux sites. I've done the configuration, made \
sure port 8891 is open but postfix says "connection refused." There's no response to \
a port scan on 8891. opendkim is not running?

A little later...

I ran sudo /opt/local/sbin/opendkim -x /opt/local/etc/opendkim/opendkim.conf and now \
there's something listening on 8891. Reloaded postfix and it appears to be correctly \
signing email.

So it appears that there does need to a LaunchDaemon to startup the opendkim daemon.
