Try  the following procedure.  This has worked for several others to restore
the functionality of the  message folders:   

1.  Use Help | About Pegasus Mail | Info to determine your mail
    directory.  Exit Pegasus mail.

2.  Rename the file HIERARCH.PM in your HOME mail directory to
    HIERARCH.SAV.

3.  Run WinPMail.  Your HIERARCH.PM will be re-created and should
    start working correctly.

Note:  This will delete any tray structure you have created and it
           will have to be recreated.  The process will not affect any
           mail of mail folders you have, it only affects the display of
           the folders.

Is there a utility that might fix the following problem?

I couldn't find a file in the folder it should have been in so I did a word search. The search found two emails in the proper folder. But the count for the left hand folder tree indicates that it contains only one message, and the right hand folder contents pane shows only one message.

I can open the email from the search window but when I push reply Pegasus aborts.

Any suggestions?
