Is it possible to make it so unread emails no longer show up as bold? (or perhaps a less severe bold) If so how?

Chosen solution

Here is a userChrome.css example for the Threads Pane font for unread mail: 

/* Threads pane text */
treechildren::-moz-tree-cell-text(unread) {
  font-size: 12pt !important;
  font-family: Verdana !important;
  font-style: italic !important;
  font-weight: normal !important;
  color: cyan !important;
}
treechildren::-moz-tree-cell-text(selected, unread) {
  font-size: 12pt !important;
  font-family: Verdana !important;
  font-weight: normal !important;
  color: orange !important;
}

The font is normal instead of bold, and in italics. The size, color and family are all adjustable.

Create a folder named chrome in the profile folder, and in chrome create a userChrome.css file with a text editor.
