Default user can't sort by "From"

I've included a missive from one of my users regarding the Zimbra web interface...can anyone give a pointer?

Thanks!

When I move my mouse marker over the "Size," "Received," and "Subject" buttons above those fields (without pressing), they all open a small prompting widow telling me what the buttons do: "Sort by Size," "Sort by Received," and "Sort by Subject." If I press the left button, the mail is sorted according to the function indicated.

HOWEVER, when I move the mouse marker over the "From" button, a small window is again opened, but it just says "From." If I press the left button nothing happens (As one might expect considering the "From"-only message.

Unfortunately, I often used the "Sort by From" function when using Thunderbird since I often want to see other messages related to the same sender. I then revert back to "Sort by Receiver" display so as to present the most recent e-mail at the top (or bottom in the case of Thunderbird - so these are the only sorting functions I ever use.

My browser is Mozilla Firefox version 3.6.13
My PC is running Windows XP Professional
