I've never seen a list of a way to find out before the fact. But all of the "top 500" airports in the US are e-ticket capable; probably all airports served by mainline AA flights, for example. It is a few of the AE and AC airports where this is an issue, and mostly ones that have a single flight per day (and presumably no nearby alternate airports). As an aside, none of these airports is capable of reissuing any OWE ticket (in fact only about a dozen of the major AA aiport ticket counters can do a OWE reissue). Staying with an e-ticket is a big help.
