Ahhh... it all becomes a little bit clearer now.
Issued from a REXX-language exec:
address command 'CP SMSG OPERATOR Please ignore this mixed case
message.'
Note that we are running CA's VM:Operator on the userid OPERATOR.
VM:Operator is set here to accept the CP SMSG data.
VM:Operator displays that message as:
Please ignore this mixed case message.
So, we have proof that CP is not uppercasing all SMSG command text issued
within quotes. (Different results will be observed when entering the
command outside of quotes in rexx, and without the 'address command'
environment, and from the CMS command line.)
But you are sending the CP SMSG data to ESATCP, a different application
program. Apparently, ESATCP is upper-casing the message text.
Look in ESATCP for additional clues. FWIW, the good folks at Velocity
Software monitor the list pretty closely, but you probably should contact
them directly for product assistance.

Re: mixed text in CP SMSG
It still does not come out with the mixed case:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10:11:42
8 *-* address command 'CP SMSG ESATCP ALERT zVM-SEV3:'
cpline
>>> "CP SMSG ESATCP ALERT zVM-SEV3:
Testing"
10 *-*
exit
Ready; T=0.01/0.01
10:11:42
ESATCP : 10:11:42 MAINT (3779) has issued command: ALERT ZVM-SEV3:
TESTING
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I used disg 8, but the same result. What's missing here ?
Thanks,
Ann

Put it in your exec as:
Address Command 'CP SMSG' VMUSER tline
And if 'VMUSER' is the userid and not a variable, put it in the quotes
too:
Address Command 'CP SMSG VMUSER' tline
