The Electronic Messaging Association (EMA) is an inter-industry forum
dedicated to the promotion, development and use of electronic messaging
technologies for secure global electronic commerce.  

                       <url:http://www.ema.org/ema/>

Founded in 1983, EMA is now composed of nearly 500 user and provider member
companies representing industries, such as aerospace, financial services,
natural resources, consulting, hardware and software development, and network
service providers.  This gathering of a diverse user and provider membership
creates the most comprehensive resource for information on the messaging
industry and the issues affecting its future.
 
The mission of the Association is to foster an environment for the open
exchange of information, opinions, and analysis of electronic messaging to
advance electronic commerce and communication technologies.  To achieve this
goal, EMA focuses on three principle areas: technology, public policy, and
education.
 
EMA has long been an active voice in the evolution of electronic messaging
technology and standards.  The focus of the organization is to remove
barriers to global interoperability and connectivity.  EMA assists in the
definition, development, and endorsement of messaging standards, but more
importantly champions the testing, demonstration, and implementation of
pragmatic operating conventions and practices.
 
In addition, EMA is a leader in shaping messaging industry public policy. 
Representing its membership, EMA promotes legislative policies favorable to
the development of electronic commerce to government agencies, technical
standards bodies, and consumer groups.  The work of EMA is a significant
factor in adoption of public policies that encourage rather than inhibit the
deployment of electronic messaging for use as a commercial tool.
 
Education is an essential part of EMA's charter. The Association sponsors and
provides training materials, publications, tutorials, conferences, and
meetings to promote an understanding of electronic messaging and related
technologies for its membership and the public.
 
As the only trade association dedicated exclusively to electronic messaging,
EMA's role will continue to expand in the coming years with the rapid growth
of the industry. EMA enthusiastically supports the evolution and improvement
of electronic messaging technologies for information exchange and commercial
applications.
