Is there some way to search distribution lists in Outlook
(either 2002 or 2003) for a specific contact, either by
name or email address? Or is there some other way to make
sure you've identified every distribution list the contact
is on, either to find out what material he's getting or to
remove him?

No, there's no way to do that.

I think its something Microsoft should look at in future
installments of Outlook. It's a tedious job when there's
more than 400 emails to sift through.

You can send feature requests to mswish@microsoft.com and
outwish@microsoft.com. I find it easier just to avoid distribution lists in
most cases.
