It looks like the messages 2 and 3 (which are displayed in an
interesting way in Enigmail) contain 2 signatures. One of them can be
verified; and one for which there is no algorithm.

That's why Enigmail displays the result the way it does. There is no
way to distinguish for Enigmail why the 2nd signature is invalid, all
GnuPG does is report "ERRORSIG". That's the same as if someone would
add an invalid signature to the message ....
