In setup you can find:

addrbook-sort-rule     =
	    Set       Rule Values
            ---   ----------------------
            ( )  fullname-with-lists-last
            ( )  fullname                
            ( )  nickname-with-lists-last
            ( )  nickname                
            ( )  dont-sort

There are a variety of options available in the configuration menu under 
address-book-sort-rule:

Use the one you find convenient.

>From Pine help:

---------------------------
| Sorting the Address book |
---------------------------
 
By default, address book entries are sorted alphabetically on the full
name with distribution lists sorted to the end.  Sorting can be changed by
resetting the address book sort rule in the Pine SETUP CONFIGURATION screen
--assuming you have "write" permission for the address book file.
 
Unlike the sorting of folders (which only changes presentation), sorting an
address book actually changes the file as it is kept on the computer.  For
this reason you may not be able to sort a shared or system-wide address
book.

When the going gets tough, the smart get lost.
