Who are the leading (both traditional academic, and 'thought leader')
reseachers who have published on the web in the area of 'the future of
email' - that is, the transformations that this mode of communication
is going to go through in the coming years?

Hi!

Would links to lists of speakers or panelists in Email technology
conferences be ok as an answer?

Thanks!

The measure of 'leading' should be in terms of academic or
non-academic citation of their work: I'm essentially looking for the
most influential using the measure a university might use, not media
profile - though those cited may have a media profile.

Links to lists of speakers or panelists in Email technology
conferences wouldn't work as an answer because their 'leading' nature
- in terms of academic credentials - would not always be evident from
the conference list.

Jack Cox, of the Denver Post, has written several articles over the
past year tracking changes that technology is bringing.  I think that
they researchers that he's interviewed provide some perspective on
your question:
