You can let that job done automagically by editing the ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf file and activating following line keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve If you then click on the signature icon within a mail using Evolution gpg will start fetching the public key if the key is not already hold in the public keyring. This does not mean, that you automatically trust the foreign key! Paul said so with his hint for the "cannot verify sender" message. Setting a desired keyserver address can be useful too.
