Can TB verify Evo's signed message in your Sent folder? Can gpg verify
it, independantly of TB?

If they can, but won't verify the received message, then possibly
somewhere along the line the HTML is being reflowed or in some way
modified, which would destroy the signature. I can't really see how that
could happen, but just to eliminate it as a possibility, try saving both
the sent mail and the received mail to files and do a simple diff on
them.
