Evolution's GnuPG support is in many ways broken, FYI.  I have
repeatedly had troubles with it misreporting inline signed messages as
having bad signatures, misreporting inline signed and encrypted messages
as being only encrypted, as misreporting trust levels, as... etc., etc.

Evolution's core developers seem to believe RFC3156 is the be-all and
end-all of OpenPGP support, and even then, it's a somewhat idiosyncratic
3156, if I recall correctly.

What sort of smartcard are you using, and what does it support as far as
hash algorithms?
