Same version as you. But I don't think version 6.6.0 is the
problem, as I don't have the problem using that same version
under GNU Emacs 21. Only when I'm using GNU Emacs 22, with the
same .emacs file...

... and the same loaded libraries (at least, that's what I
think, but I checked for color-theme, and that's the case:
`locate-library' returns the 6.6.0 directory under both Emacs
versions).

As I said initially in this post, I've the same problem as
yours, but not at the same place!?

In my case, the describing the face of the Subject line
correctly returns `message-header-subject'. But it fails at
other spots, in the Group buffer for example, where it returns
`default' for all lines... which does not allow me anymore to
see in which groups I've unread mails (as I typically bold those
lines - which does not work in Emacs 22).

Hope these info further help the enlightened community to track
the bug down...
