E-mail Abuse: City Worker Suspended after Lewd E-mail Spreads

Trevor Luxton of London Bank Credit Lyonnais has been suspended on full pay while his employer investigates alleged abuse of the company's e-mail policy.

The investigation follows an e-mail which Mr Luxton is thought to have sent about a recent sexual experience. The e-mail then spread via the internet, presumably bearing the name of his employer.

Because of the high-profile status of the company involved, the case will no doubt attract much interest.
