I know there are people who wrote the ftp programs using CICS socket
programs. I also heard that the ftp protocol is a little more difficult
than smtp interface. There is also some benefit of writing this program
versus MQ Series. There is no need to write any programs on the other side
since it talks to the ftp server. I wish IBM provides some sample ftp
codes.

Sam,
FTP is not a part of CICS socket stuff. You can use EXCI to retrieve
the data in your batch-applicaton and move this data to a sequential
file. As a second step you can easily invoke FTP to move the sequential
to any system.
I think this is good application for MqSeries
