You have a key in your keyring that purportedly belongs to your friend,
but there is no assurance that this is indeed the case (anyone can
generate a PGP key stating any email address it wants).

Option 1:
Ensure that the is verifiable through the Web of Trust starting from
from your own PGP key.

Option 2:
Configure evolution not to check that and instead assume that if you
have a OpenPGP key in your keyring for a given email, it should encrypt
the messages for that recipient using that key:
Edit $B"*(B Preferences $B"*(B (Choose your account) $B"*(B Edit $B"*(B Security $B"*(B Check
Always trust keys in my keyring when encrypting

Best regards
