How do I ship EMS from the United States?

Someone in Italy is interested in purchasing something I'm selling online. They'd like EMS shipping. So how do I do that? I looked on the USPS website and they have Express Mail International, which has an E and an M in it, but maybe it's not the same thing? I also googled it and something came up about Global Express shipping, but that's really expensive…like it would be $80 to ship the package! I know this is probably a stupid question, but I'm so confused!

1. EMS and International Express Mail are the same thing. Very expensive, but fast. You might want to go to the Post Office and get an idea of how much it's going to cost, because you might get an unpleasant surprise. $80 for a large package via EMS isn't out of line.
