Whether it be icons, colors or whatever, there's really no way around the fact that you'll also need some form of text onscreen (even before you move your mouse over the "buttons") or else it's simply going to be confusing and off-putting for people. I think this is the only message board I've ever seen that has "buttons" with no text.

The 3 most unclear icons (new, reply, delete) have been replaced with ones that have both color and text. I hope it makes them easier to use.

If it was up to me, I'd replace the Edit and Mail buttons with text, as well, because the Edit button looks kind of like the sort of button I commonly see to send e-mail, whereas the Mail button looks more like a photo attachment button.
Indeed, I can't speak for anyone else here, but if you have the option to just use text in all your buttons, rather than icons, I think that'd be the simplest.
