IITISM provides email to all its Faculty Members, Students and Employees including all officials of IITISM on iitism.ac.in domain. We provide email IDs immediately after MIS registration of an employee and the students. At present we have more than 10000 active students on our domain. The email policy for alumni has not yet been decided, however as a healthy practice we do not delete any email IDs even after 6 months of passing out of students. Apart from emails we also have several hundreds of groups in which restricted users can send email without any problem. Individual users can also create groups of their choice and add members to it.
We create email IDs for all our new employees and students as soon as their MIS registration is completed. In case the email ID is not created within 3 days of their creation of MIS they may contact webmaster[at the rate of]iitism[dot]ac[dot]in .
The users can download Manual for Configuring Thunderbird and Microsoft Outlook is can be downloaded from here ---
