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.
