Looking at DKIM adoption. I have seen statements that some mailers will
do DKIM based reputation if available,  but I have yet to see a statement
as either:
-an email not signed with DKIM will have its reputation lowered (less
likely to pass filters)
-an email signed with DKIM will have its reputation increased (more
likely to pass filters)

I think if there were some postmasters making such statement it would
boost the adoption of DKIM.

Yahoo! broadly hinted, some years ago, that they'd start giving a slight 
positive bump to messages signed with DomainKeys.  Two things happened:

1. serious hardcore spammers (not just misguided marketers) started 
including DomainKeys signatures

2. lots of people who really should've known better started saying "use 
DomainKeys and your deliverability will improve!"

We also wrote about the slow emergence of domain reputation recently, trying 
to avoid piling on to the hyperbolic misrepresentations so common on other 
email marketing blogs:
