I had meant to post the following "bug" report to this newsgroup, but
I accidentally posted it to gnu.emacs.vm.info instead.  Since there
haven't yet been any replies to it there, I thought I'd try it again
here, where I originally intended it.

By default, the key "*" is mapped to vm-burst-digest, and the variable
vm-delete-after-bursting determines whether the original digest is
marked for deletion after bursting.  However, I prefer to burst
digests into a separate folder, so I have the following in my .vm:

    (define-key vm-mode-map "*" 'vm-burst-digest-to-temp-folder)

This has the advantage that quitting the temp folder is tantamount to
deleting all of the bursted messages at one time.  However, the
variable vm-delete-after-bursting no longer applies to the original
digest, whereas it seems that it should.
