For message composition, I don't do anytihing specific. Quoted text is
formatted with the font-lock-comment-face. The To: and Subject: headers are
also coloured.
Note that Uday is working on moving from mail-mode to message-mode for
message composition/editing. I beleive this has font-lock support already.
The core VM does not have any faces for message presentation. I don't do
any colourising of message presentation at present. The u-vm-color.el
package does do this, but also summary font locking, which I suspect mayl
conflict with vm-summary-faces.
When I get time, I will look at u-vm-color.el and see if we can extract
the presentation font-locking into a vm-presentation-faces.el (or whatever)
that only includes font-locking for the presentation buffer. This would
avoid any potential conflict/confusion with using u-vm-color and
vm-summary-faces.
In the meantime, you can probably get consistent results by customizing
the faces used by u-vm-color and vm-summary-faces.

P.S. Note that I got Uday to revert the default highlight face from being
reverse video to just being bold. This may well improve the odd results you
observed with the previous commit.
