This can be due to poor bounce messages, .forwards, and a host of other factors. I wrote bin/find_member to help with this because often there will be /some/ identifying information that can be used to craft a regex to search the list memberships. Then you basically have to apply a little wetware processing and send a test message.
It would be nice if this was more automatic. It's a hard problem though.
