If his signed emails fail to verify, it's probably not the key that's at
fault.
Can you view the same messages in mutt, Mozilla+enigmail or KMail?
Dennis' message on Tuesday 2:56:10 (Re: Use of public key servers) validates
fine with key 0xF53BA904, he uses PGP/MIME to sign, like this one. It should
validate in Evolution. (The signature is valid, but the key's validity is
unknown - so I can't trust Dennis' key either.)

All messages on this gnupg-users mailing list in the last few months have
validated in KMail - have any of mine not validated in your copy of
Evolution?
