Coast - the communities of Sayulita, San Pancho, Lo de Marcos, El Monteon, Los

Chacala, Las Varas.
The Jaltemba Sol is published by Dorothy and Bill Bell in
sunny La Peņita Mexico. All rights reserved.
History of the Sol
The Jaltemba Sol, began as a writing project and opportunity
to contribute to the community. Dorothy and Bill Bell began publishing the
Jaltemba Express, the Sol's predecessor, at the La Peņita RV Park to introduce
new residents about the community. The Express grew quickly as subscribers sent
emails to friends and families "back home."
In the summer of 2007 the Bells were surprised to find that
the name, The Jaltemba Express, had been registered as a unique domain name.
This site has always been "For Sale". The Bells' dilemma was to either be
hijacked into buying their own name or to move on.
September 13, 2007 the paper was christened the Jaltemba
Sol.
Starting with a list of 100 names, we have grown to just
under 8,000 subscribers in the community and are read throughout the world. We
have reports that tell us over 40,000 distinct visitors read the Sol every
issue.

Problems with Subscriptions

Add editor@jaltembasol.com to Your Address Book/White List
Many times, messages from mailing lists seem to not get
delivered, because they get filtered into junk mail folders. This is because
sometimes the legitimate unsubscription information that's in the message itself
is flagged as being SPAM-like.
There's no proper way around this, except to not have this
unsubscription information available, which will cause trouble when you want off
a list. It's a Catch-22 situation.
In light of this problem, the best thing to do is to add the
list owner's email address, editor@jaltembasol.com , to your
