Many folks use edge devices that look/act like an mta but is antispam/av
oriented. Dropping a dkim plugin should be no more dificult that deploying a
new av engine.

With milter, you don't have to upgrade your sendmail version. For us,
we'd probably have to go through a lot more contortions to get our
infosec folks to buy into a new sendmail version for our production
environment. Not undoable, but definitely harder.
My understanding is that other MTA's have similar plugin kinds of
capabilities too.
