I was debating whether to use capital letters or not.  I agree with you, I
think it does look better, and I have capital RHEL.
With the bit I added for Kevin, here is what I currently have

Subject:
Notice: <package> will be automatically retired from EPEL <major> when RHEL
<major>.<minor> is released

Comment:

Thank you for your work maintaining <package> in EPEL <major>.  This
package has been considered important enough to Red Hat's customers that
Red Hat has decided to promote it to be an official part of RHEL.  It will
be part of RHEL <major>.<minor>.  When that is released, EPEL automation
will remove <package> from EPEL <major> and close this bug.
