Does anyone have DKIM+sendmail+spamassassin smarts?

I had sendmail + spamass-milter + sendmail. All was good.
Then the spam started creeping up and I added clamav via clamav-milter. (When
I say levels were increasing, I mean to say that the levels of false negatives
that were getting through were getting through. The stuff that gets rejected
is rejected in the milters so I never even see it.)
Huge help. Then it started creeping up again. I added something called scamp
which added huge numbers of signatures to clamav. Life was good again. Then I
saw that the spam levels were again bumping up. I decided that the mail that
was rejected by clamav-milter (which came before spamass-milter) never got to
contribute to spamassassin's bayes and AWL tables.
So I looked around and found a clamav plugin for spamassassin. I got rid of
the clamav-milter and the difference is quite noticeable.
Now I want to use DKIM to have sendmail sign my mail. In addition, I
loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::DKIM
in spamssassin because I see how important it is for spamassassin to be the
central place where countermeasures happen.
So what I want to do is to setup dkim-milter so that it will sign my outgoing
mail and serve the public key, but I don't want the milter to verify the
incoming mail because spamassassin is already doing that.
To be honest, I'm not even sure if I'm asking the question write.
Am I making sense?
