</span>The emacs frontend for notmuch ships with the C source. You should use<br>
matching versions. Other versions _might_ work, but are not guaranteed<br>
to. MELPA is kindof unuseful for things like notmuch that need C<br>
libraries; it's easy to get badly out of sync.<br>

On the other hand, the problem you mention sounds unrelated...<br>

<br>
</span>I think you want (setq notmuch-crypto-process-mime t); it's a variable,<br>
not a function.<br>
