SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Sexually explicit e-mails; penalty.  Provides that it is a Class 6 felony to send a sexually explicit commercial e-mail without including the words "sexually-explicit" in capital letters as the subject line and as the opening phrase of the e-mail. There must also be clear and conspicuous identification that the message is an advertisement or solicitation and a clear and conspicuous statement that to avoid viewing the sexually explicit material a recipient should delete the e-mail. These requirements mirror the federal CAN SPAM Act.
