I thought there was a way to trigger immediate distribution of a digest immediately, but I guess I'm remembering that from Mailman 2. Neither the Postorius management interface nor the core documentation suggests there's such a trigger in Mailman 3.
There is nothing in the web UI or REST, but the mailman digests
command can send accumulated digests for one or more named lists or all
lists unconditionally or only if the list's digest_send_periodic is set
to True. see mailkman digests --help for details.
- I have customized list:member:digest:header, but am not seeing the custom text where I thought it should be. The documentation seems to imply that both list:member:digest:header and list:member:digest:footer surround each message in the digest
Which documentation do you mean? As far as I know (Mark will have authoritative information if I'm wrong), the digest header and footer appear at the top and bottom of the *whole* digest message (ie, once each per digest), not surrounding or in the bodies of the component messages.
Steve is correct. The layout is as follows
The masthead from the list:member:digest:masthead template. The digest header if any from the list:member:digest:header template. The table of contents. The individual messages. The digest footer from the list:member:digest:footer template.
For the MIME digest, these are all separate MIME parts and the individual messages are message/rfc822 parts within a multipart/digest part.
For the plain text digest, the digest is one text/plain part containing the above formatted par RFC 1153

I also have a feature request (I didn't see it in the docs), consider creating list:member:digest:mastfoot – a chunk of text that could be at the end of the digest. Thanks.
This already exists, it is list:member:digest:footer. Your confusion seems to be because you think the list:member:digest:header template and list:member:digest:footer template are prepended/appended to each individual message in the digest which would not make sense and is not the case.
