Finduser

is an Admin console command that lets you look up what accounts are owned by an email address, and what email address is confirmed for an account. It provides extra information such as userid, paid status, available invite codes, and information about account status (deleted, suspended, etc) and email address confirmation (confirmed, uncomfirmed, etc).

Syntax
There are several versions of the command, depending on what you want to look up. For all these examples, replace 'username' with the username you want to look up, and email@example.org with the email address you want to look up.
