trouble with keeping up with the messages

I am having a hard time keeping up with these messages to see if I got any notes from MY secret buddy and/or if my secret buddy got her gift. Is there a way to search the message board by the poster's name or with key words? I think that would be a nice feature if OH could add it....

by the posters name...you can click on the left blue area "Roster of Members" and find them...it shows how many times they have posted you click that link and it will show all their posts. Now key words...

Please read my post - just posted "Good IDEA?"
