My newsreader, XNews, allows me to search by poster.
XNews does have an annoying drawback, however... it cannot open
newsgroups that contain over 1 billion posts. Trying to do so produces
an error that requires using task manager to close out the program.
With the newsgroups it can open, it is limited to the 50 million most
recent posts.
Xnews also allows me to easily reset the "Read pointer", so it thinks I
have not read any posts in that newsgroup.
Another disadvantage is that XNews has been orphaned for at least 10
years. It will never be updated.
