You're telling postfix to talk to a port where nothing's listening, so you
should see errors from postfix and no activity from opendkim (as before,
in the latter case).
I'm not a postfix guy so I wouldn't know how to go about debugging or
fixing this. There's a postfix-users list you can reach through
http://www.postfix.org, though some of that lot can be a bit sharp with
neophytes. Be warned. :-)

That's good, but it's a separate issue from whether or not postfix and
opendkim are communicating.

There are indeed postfix users on this list, so maybe one of them can
suggest how to figure out what's going on here. Good luck...
