I don't think it's case-sensitive, but never hurts :)

Hmm, "sounds" like a setting problem with Telix then. (Which version BTW?)
I've been using 3.22 with VModem for over a year without a problem (Also have 
used Robocomm with good results as well). 
Did you set up a program object for telix? Have the SIO_Allow_Access_Com4
and SIO_Share_Access_with_OS/2 and SIO_Virtualize_COM_ports set to ON in the 
objects Dos Settings? 
I have a separate AUTOEXEC for it, to set the path and TELIX enviromental 
variable (you probably allready checked all these, never hurts to check).
I don't know if it will help, but heres the Terminal options and
Comm port Setup screens from my Telix...
A - Port COM4   Baud 57600    Parity None   Data bits 8   Stop bits 1
B - Emulate before translate table... Off

J - XON/XOFF software flow control .. Off
K - CTS/RTS hardware flow control ... On
