You could use an alternate manager like BOINCtasks, which lets you color code and sort messages by various flags. http://efmer.com/b/

Another useful way in BT (BOINCTasks) is to set the color coding in the result history. If Green [default i think], and it says "Report OK" or "Report OK+", no log sifting needed.

Edit: The fun part of this approach is, it gives a local timestamp when it happened, making it easy to scan for the relating Event log entries.

And since the output of the Event Log is constantly written to stdoutdae.txt (which when filled to capacity is renamed to stdoutdae.old and a new *.txt is started) in the BOINC data directory, you could search through the text file. BOINC has options through cc_config.xml to increase the size of the log files, the default being just 2 megabyte.
