Point 1 is not a problem with seahorse since even gpg thinks your key is
not signed with a trusted signature. You have to trust at least one of
the keys which signed the key. You can adjust the trust settings in
seahorse or the gpg-commands to accomplish that.

Point 2 isn't a real problem, too. Check in the security-settings of
evolution that you do not have an option like "always encrypt to self"
activated, check the same for System->Preferences->Encryption and
Keyrings. With this option active, you are supposed to be able to
decrypt a message. It still will be decryptable by the key of your
friend. That's how gpg/pgp works.

I'm closing here since what you reported does not look like a bug in
seahorse. As a general reminder, you can always open a support question
on https://answers.launchpad.net and will get quality help. Thanks for
your understanding.
