I've now tried two other encrypted messages and they also fail to
decrypt. epa-mail-decrypt works here so it seems like a notmuch issue,
guessing that there is some configuration that is wrong somewhere.

I'm not getting any output besides the message when I do --verify (same as
with an unsigned message) so to me it doesn't seem like it is working
per the man page. But I might be wrong here.
