Perfect job for a shellscript. :) 

    #!/bin/sh

    if [ -z "$2" ]; then
        echo "Usage: `basename $0` <file> <file with sums>" 1>&2
        exit
    fi    
    
    sum=`md5 "$1" | sed 's-^MD5 [^=]*= --'`
    cnt=`grep -c "$sum" "$2"`


    if [ $cnt -eq 0 ]; then
        echo "No match."
    else
        echo "Match."      
    fi
