Hm... I seem to be too dumb. Mutt tells me that the msg is signed, but doesn't
tell me by whom (I know that I need to have the public key in my keyring to see
a name, but it doesn't even tell me the key ID). Saving the whole mail to a
file and verifying the sig doesn't work either, that too is obvious because 1)
only the text is signed, not the rest of the mail and b) the signed stuff and
the sig need to be two different files for gpg --verify to work. So I saved the
signature.asc and the text separately. Now verification works and I see a key
ID, but using gpg --search <key ID> doesn't find the given key on the server.

GPGing was much easier when KMail still worked. ^^
