This is an issue for Maverick and Lucid which are still being supported. So
I'm reopening this issue.
Due to many issues with Natty's usability changes and my workflow I haven't
tried it there. Yet even if it may be fixed in Natty it should be fixed in
Maverick and Lucid also.

Title:
Evolution fails to decrypt GPG message if signature (not encryption)
key is not available
Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool:
Unknown
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: evolution
It seems that the bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/90339 has
reappeared in evolution 2.30.3-1ubuntu7.1
Actual results:
1) I receive a GPG encrypted mail, sent to my public key. However, the
mail is signed with a key not in my keyring.
2) Evolution does not display the mail, instead it displays a red
error text output from GPG, with a message that the public key used
for the signature was not found.
3) Result: I cannot read the mail using Evolution. However, I am able
to read the mail on the command line by using `gpg --decrypt` -- it
shows a warning about missing signature key, but also shows the mail
body.
Expected results:
Evolution should show the mail body, plus a broken "seal" at the bottom
indicating that the signature public key was not found.
Does this happen every time?
Yes.
