I have a patch for 1.94.1 that does this. See
http://www.smoe.org/~jeffw/majordomo/patches.html.

Note that this patch will change the digest program so that all
digests have the new appearance. It isn't perfect in dealing with
very long subject lines (now and then the subject line will
wrap). I intend to do some more work on it, but I haven't had the
time.

This is what the new digest _SUBJECTS_ token looks like:

test-digest         Sunday, February 16 1997        Volume 02 : Number 026
