Yes, it still is:
User A: start REXXTRY (or simething similar), issue 'WAKEUP (IUCVMSG'
User B: from another user, send a message to the first one;
User A: WAKEUP will end with RC5 and you sit in VM READ
User B: From the other user, send 270 numbered messages
User A: no messages displayed, WAKEUP
In the past, Ross Fried's QIUCV EXEC displayed the number of queued
message correctly,
now in z/VM 5.2, it displays 0. This QIUCV EXEC needs some additional
fixes.
QIUCV still displayes the number of queued lines when running
QIUCV SYSTEM

When you are talking about IUCV messages the WAKEUP IUCV interrupt handler
is loaded and running if you have invoked WAKEUP with this option. The
messages will be queued until you ask for them with the next WAKEUP
IUCVMSG invocation.
If you are talking about VMCF messages they are queued by

You only need a comma at the end of a line to indicate continuation. So
the correct syntax would be most like you second suggestion.

I'm curious. We have Sensed as the very first in line. Then we do
our onlines and offlines. I'm ass/u/me/ing that if the below passed
the cpsyntax that it would work, but I've always figured you needed
to sense them before you can off or on them. Is this true? If not,
why? THANX

Any order will work. The last statement wins. So if you have Offline,
Online, Sensed, Offline, the last offline takes precedence.
