Its the message_fronter parameter for the digest list. The
message_header parameter is for rfc822 headers.  Something like the
following (explanatory text is not necessary) should do what you want:

        # message_fronter    [string_array] (undef) <resend,digest>
        # Text to be prepended to the beginning of all messages posted to the
        # list. The text is expanded before being used. The following
        # expansion tokens are defined: $LIST - the name of the current list,
        # $SENDER - the sender as taken from the from line, $VERSION, the
        # version of majordomo. If used in a digest, only the expansion token
        # _SUBJECTS_ is available, and it expands to the list of message
        # subjects in the digest
message_fronter   <<  END
In this issue:
-
-       _SUBJECTS_
-
See the end of the digest for information on subscribing to the bblisa
or bblisa-digest mailing lists.
