O.K., thanks, it works now like I want it to work.

 The keyserver-option auto-key-retrieve tells gpg to try to get a key
 from a keyserver whenever it's verifying a message but lacks the public
 key on your keyring.

 You can check 'man gpg' for more information about tweaking gpg's
 behavior, but the options above will probably be just fine for your use.

Thanks for the hint. I didn't think it was the gpg configuration, I thought I 
can solve my problem by configuring the gpg plugin somehow. I will check the 
man page for more details.

 Hi all,
 
 I have a problem with KMail regarding the GnuPG plugin. I think i just do not 
 know how to use it and where to find documentation, so a little help would be 
 useful.
 
 The plugin itself works fine, I can send encrypted and signed messages, I get 
 always a prompt in which I can enter my passphrase etc.
 
 My only problem is if I receive signed messages from unknown identities. 
 KMail 
 puts the whole message into a yellow box and says that there is a unknown 
 key. There is no possibility to search for the key and insert it, or is it 
 and I do not know about it? It would be nice to add new keys directly from 
 the KMail interface. If it is not possible, what is the fastest _and_ most 
 user friendly way?
 
 Greets,
 
 Rafael Bugajewski
