This is not correct. Yahoo! will be moving from DK to DKIM 'real soon'.
Additionally it's not clear that Yahoo! uses DK/DKIM signatures in their
inbound filtering. Last I checked (it's been a few months) they still set
the test flag on their outbound signstures.

Postfix 2.3 and later support Sendmail milters. I've been running
dkim-filter (the DKIM equivalent of dk-filter) for nearly a year with
Postfix 2.3/2.4 with no problems.
Personally, I wouldn't waste any time on DK. It's time is nearly past.
