Can't figure out how to turn off color in summary buffer

Using vm version 8.0.0-453, fsf emacs-22.0.990
My summary buffer has different colored messages. Some are blue, some
are green, some are bright blue, some are gray, some are white. I have
a hard time reading these colors: I want them to all be white, like
they used to be.

I know that emacs calls its colors "faces". So I do an "info vm", and
select "Faces". It refers me to vm-summary-highlight-face, vm-mouse-
track-summary, vm-highlighted-header-regexp, vm-highlighted-header-
face, and vm-highlight-url-face. None of these seem to do what I
want.

After some googling I found vm-disable-addons, which turns off the
color. But it also turns off a bunch of other stuff, some of which
could be quite cool. Grepping the source, I find that vm-enable-addons
causes vm-summary-faces-mode to be turned on. But (setq vm-summary-
faces-mode nil) in my .vm appears to have no effect.

May we have some documentation as to the proper way to turn off the
colors in the summary buffer?

Thanks,

Joe
