GPG signature verification of msg says "WARNING: Does not match From address" when the key is just retrieved

Description
If you have GPG configured with auto-key-retrieve and you do not yet have a particular public key, the following occurs:
1) You click on the msg. GPG retrieves the key. Mulberry displays that the msg signature was correct, but it displays a warning Signature: OK Signed By: (1015EB26) WARNING: Does not match From address
2) You close the folder. This apparently clears the cached info and now msg signatures are verified again.
3) Now open the folder again and click on the same msg. This time there is no warning.
Not sure if this occurs for all keys. Probably only for keys that have more than one e-mail address attached ti it. In my case it occured with the key 0x1015EB26
$ gpg --list-key 0x1015EB26 pub 1024D/1015EB26 2003-11-12 Aric Gregson (Consultant for PATH's Malaria Vacci ne Initiative) <agregson@…> uid Aric Gregson (CVD MD) <agreg003@…> uid Aric Gregson (bear) <aorchid@…> sub 2048g/B89F5C18 2003-11-12
This occurs with Mulberry v4.0.6 under both WinXP Pro and Ubuntu 6.06
It's not realy a problem, It's just an annoyance.
