Ann, per your question: "Also, I received YLD emails on my regular email server towards the end of last week, but haven't received any today. Are they not posted every day?"
I suggest you sent this in an email to the YLD list. Address your email to yld@yahoogroups.com. Just ask them the same question. It will be a good way to get conversations started

For your question "I tried typing in the address for the Mon. and Wed. chats, but the message said it was unavailable."
If you follow the directions in some of the other answers in this forum and the things you've tried, you should be able to get into chat anytime. There just won't be anyone else there other than the scheduled chat times.
