Do you guys have "keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve" in
~/.gnupg/gpg.conf?  (Or do evo and kmail ignore gpg.conf and retrieve
keys automatically regarless?)

Also, what keyserver are you using?  The gnupg default these days is
subkeys.pgp.net, which finds Mikkel's key no problem.  Trying with
pgp.mit.edu (which many people still use despite it being broken with
subkeys and not support photo-packets) finds the key as well, but a
bit slower.
