Yep, confirmed. The problem is that since `use score colors in subject column' is clicked on, and those use greyed to mean `low score' rather than `read', there's some confusion going on. Another user reported this as a bug and I closed it with WONTFIX, but since there have been a handful of people asking about this, perhaps color-for-score and color-for-read schemes need to be reconciled. One obvious way to do this is to use the column background for the score, and keep the foreground for read/unread/new.

OTOH, it's simpler to code, and more intuitive, if we leave the columns' colors alone if the article's score is zero.
