[colug-432] Keysigning Party at OLF

Question: I'm a relative gpg newbie and I'm not sure what to do with
that output.  I tried doing a "gpg --recv-keys" followed by the key ID.
It worked, but now Evolution tells me "Valid signature, but cannot
verify sender."  Is there any way to change that?  Did I miss a step
somewhere?  I tried googling it, but couldn't find anything useful.
