Check your ~/.gnupg/options (or the newer ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf). You will
have to set a keyserver and the option to automatically retrieve the
keys:

keyserver keyserver.example.net
keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve

If you wanna check the signature of a signed mail, just click the lock
icon. GnuPG then will look up the key, if necessary.

Nope, there is no key management in Evolution. I may be wrong, but IIRC
this isn't planned either.
