Not to my knowledge.

Honest opinion - that simply won't work.  I wish I could return the
youthful innocence when I believed that people bothered even a whit
about following instructions & conventions.  Hacker courtesy and all

It has been a long time since I have journeyed into the dark heart of
mailman - but I do not recall any such feature.  My guess is you would
have a cron task to scrape user's with digest enabled into the always
moderate list.
