I like to put all three, as MacPorts prints all three for me, so it is just a 
copy and paste.  There may be an easier way, but I just try to install with the 
-d flag a port that I am working on, for which I know will checksum error, and 
the three correct ones are then suggested to me.  I copy and paste them from 
there.

This is about levels of security.  You ca certainly get by with just md5, as 
any ports I have seen have just that.  For example:
