Milk does not produce phlegm at all unless you are allergic to it. It's an old wive's tale. Fat can thicken phlegm, so if you drink whole milk you may see an increase in thickness, but it does not produce it. But that would be the case for any high-fat food you consume, not just milk.
There is a good article in the New York Times about this myth: http://www.nytimes.com/2004/08/10/health/really.html
