Do you mean that DKIM canonicalization algorithm should convert all
headers when preparing message from signature or verification ?


Yes. From RFC 4871:

3.4.2 The "relaxed" Header Canonicalization Algorithm

The "relaxed" header canonicalization algorithm MUST apply the following
steps in order:

* Convert all header field names (not the header field values) to
lowercase.
...

MUST the "relaxed" header canonicalization algorithm be applied?

If so, this is a bug with Sophos' DKIM verification implementation.
