Obnoxious also.
"gpg --batch --keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve" does the job, or
clicking on a button within Thunderbird. If some people don't know how
to fetch a public key from a signature, it's better not to trust
encryption with them.

Concerning key servers, unless in very specific cases, I think keys
should be on big and commonly used keyservers which synchronize among
themselves. Otherwise new signatures, IDs, and revocations will not
get propagated when people refresh their keyring.
