[Bug 799612] Re: Expose REST API call to look up member/user id given an email address

[Barry Warsaw]

Hi Florian, can you provide some clarification on exactly what you need?
Here's what you can do right now in the REST API:

Given an email address, you can get a list of all that's address's
memberships.  You get a sequence of member entries, and from each of
these you can find its mailing list, role, and member id.  So while
you'd still have to do a search, it should be of a much smaller set.

Note that to identify a "membership", you need the triplet of address-
or-user[*], mailing list, and role.

[*] You can now provide a user as long as the user has a preferred
address.
