Yes, the Y! Eat.At group is still live...
The forum Dawn set up I'm pretty sure does have a PM function, but we didn't end up with a lot of folks signed up over there. I'd add the link to it here, but I may have lost it when my pc crashed b/c I can't find it now.
The Y! Group doesn't have a specific PM setting given Y! Groups platform is email based. You could email a member via the group though. You can go in under "Members" view the list and send a message (aka email) to a member.

Do you think it would be easier to use the PM's at Dawn's forum? I'm just looking for an alternative
so members can PM each other! For example, I have some brand new cookbooks to give away, and would need to be able to PM people in order to exchange email addresses, so they can email me their home addresses, etc.

Yes, it's Dawn_MO, found the link for that forum...
it looks like you can both email and PM someone, however there are less than half the members there vs. the Y! site so someone might need to sign-up before you could contact them through there. It's an open site though (vs. how I configured Y! to be private/invite only) so should be easy for anyone to do that who wants to.
You can contact folks via Y!, but it's email only.
I haven't tried to PM in a while, but can you use it with subject lines only? Thought that was working, at least for a while.
