Faces
*****

VM uses Emacs faces to emphasize text in the folder and summary
buffers.  Instead of defining VM specific faces, VM's face usage is
controlled by customization variables that can point to faces.  This
allows you to use standard Emacs faces, or to create your own.  So
when you want to change which face is used, write code like this:

     (setq vm-summary-highlight-face 'bold-italic)

In the summary buffer, VM display the summary entry for the current
message using the face specified by the `vm-summary-highlight-face'
variable.  The value of this variable should be a symbol that names a
face, or nil which means don't display the summary entry of the
current message in a special way.

The variable `vm-mouse-track-summary' controls whether summary entries
are highlighted when the mouse pointer passes over them.  The
highlighting is done using the standard Emacs `highlight' face.

In the folder buffer, the header contents of headers matched by the
`vm-highlighted-header-regexp' variable are displayed using the face
named by `vm-highlighted-header-face'.  This variable is ignored under
XEmacs if `vm-use-lucid-highlighting' is nil.  XEmacs'
`highlight-headers' package is used instead.  See the documentation
for the function `highlight-headers' to find out how to customize
header highlighting using this package.

URL's that occur in message bodies are displayed using the face named
by `vm-highlight-url-face'.

The face named by `vm-mime-button-face' is used to display the textual
buttons that trigger the display of MIME objects.
