You don't have to read Python, just English.  Running find_member
without arguments gives a help message.  If you don't know which lists
this person is a member of, find_member looks useful.

If you know the list in question, you probably want to use list_members
with our old friend grep.  Eg. to find all "@aol.com" users on
"foo-list":

  cd ~mailman
  ./bin/list_members foo-list | grep '@aol\.com'

Good luck --
