"NEW" and "UNCONFIRMED" aren't severities, they are statuses.

You probably just need to enable the unconfirmed state in the Params.

If you need support, please use the resources at

I create new bugs every day using the latest CVS version and I never observed
this problem.

To enable the use of the UNCONFIRMED state, you have to change the "Number of
votes a bug in this product needs to automatically get out of the UNCONFIRMED
state" to a non zero value in editproducts.cgi.

mkanat, FYI there is no option in params to turn this on or off. ;)
