I found that I couldn't burst any Digests at all except for one.
The problem appears to be that undigestify.el does not like the individual
messages in a digest not to have To: fields.
I modified undigestify.el's following code (add lines with >) :
			   (or (mail-fetch-field "Reply-To")
			       (mail-fetch-field "To")
			       (mail-fetch-field "Apparently-To")
>			       ; CMM, added the following, seems to work with 
>			       ; most digests (all so far)
>			       (mail-fetch-field "From"))) 

Sorry this is not a diff but there are other changes in that file which do not 
pertain to this problem.  Just load the modified file after you load rmail.
I do it in my .emacs:
;; load rmail so we replace undigestify-rmail-message with our own
(load "rmail" nil t nil)
(load "undigestify.el" nil t nil) ; assumes file is in load-path

There might be a better solution but I'm not specially good at hacking 
Gnu-Emacs (yet ;-))
