Is RFC 934 the accepted standard for the format of digests?  That first
two widely distributed digest encountered are not complaint with this
RFC.  This leads me to wonder whether there is some other standard,
written or otherwise.

I need this information to provide support for digest bursting in a mail
front-end.  The agent currently works with RFC 934 complaint digests but
fails on malformed digests where "^-" to "- -" char stuffing is not
done.
