Probably not. I am willing to bet that when you middle-click
button2 on the [[PGP Signed Part:Failed]] button, it tells you that you
don't have the public key for that person installed.

The easy way to deal with this, especially if you have 24/7 Internet, is
to configure GPG to automatically fetch keys from one of the Internet
PGP keyservers.
