Short of modifying the data you can't do it via configuration. This would
be a nice addition to parser support though and I could sneak it into 6.2
I think if someone would be so kind as to create a ticket...

Subject: Re: [mapserver-users] Change case of labels using a mapfile

Dear users
Our data contains fields that we would like to use as labels and the
field data is all in upper case.
I have been trying to find a way to use the mapfile to make the label
appear in lower case.
Does anyone have any thoughts?
You might be able to do this with ogr2ogr. You can use a sql statement
to modify the the column you want. Here are some links that might help:
http://www.gdal.org/ogr2ogr.html
http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr_sql.html
http://www.bostongis.com/PrinterFriendly.aspx?content_name=ogr_cheatsheet
You might try initcap(string), lower(string)
I have not tried this, but it is probably worth a try. Other options
would be loading the file into postgis or spatialite and modifying it
there then dumping it back out or writing a C, Perl, or Python script to
modify the file.
