About M@iler D@emon.....

Mailer Daemon, rather MD as it is popularly known, is the in-campus newspaper of the Indian School of Mines University, Dhanbad. It is a non-profit organisation which aims at bringing the latest developments in the institute to the notice of the students, providing them an appropriate platform to voice their opinion, share their experiences and analyse the campus activities. Mailer Daemon is a symbol of creativity of thoughts and freedom of expression.

Mailer Daemon is distributed free of cost to the students in the various hostels. We not only reach out to each and every student at ISMU – e-copies of our issues are delivered to a number of alumni throughout the world.

History of M@iler D@emon.....

The credit for the inception of Mailer Daemon goes to certain intellects of the 2K6 batch.They felt the need for an appropriate platform to voice their opinions and thus in November 2003 Mailer Daemon was born. What started as a single page newsletter graduated in two years into a four page monthly, and is currently a six page fortnightly newspaper.
