The guix plugin worked out of the box on GuixSD. I have not set it up on
my main workstation, as I mainly work from a terminal, and it did not
integrate well with Evil.

Yes, I have a layer called "mail". Here is config.el, using two mail
accounts (this one and work). Don't ask what all the options mean...

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq notmuch-crypto-process-mime t
      notmuch-search-oldest-first nil
      notmuch-folders '(("inbox" . "tag:inbox")
                        ("work" . "tag:work")
                        ("guix" . "tag:guix")
                        ; ..add your most-used tags here..
                        ))

(setq mail-specify-envelope-from t
      message-sendmail-envelope-from 'header
      mail-envelope-from 'header
      ;; Tell notmuch where to place sent email based on sender.
      notmuch-fcc-dirs '(("m.bakke@warwick.ac.uk" . "work/Sent")
                        ("mbakke@fastmail.com" . "fastmail/Sent"))
      sendmail-program "/home/marius/.nix-profile/bin/msmtp"
      send-mail-function 'message-send-mail-with-sendmail
      message-send-mail-function 'message-send-mail-with-sendmail
      message-directory "~/Mail/drafts"
      message-kill-buffer-on-exit t)

;; Ask which signing key to use.
(setq mm-sign-option 'guided)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

..and packages.el (not sure if all of this is required):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq mail-packages
  '(notmuch
    peg
    nm))

(setq mail-excluded-packages '())

(defun mail/init-nm()
  (require 'nm))

(defun mail/init-nmaddr()
  (require 'nm-company))

(when (configuration-layer/layer-usedp 'auto-completion)

  ;; Hook company to notmuch
  (defun mail/post-init-company ()
    (spacemacs|add-company-hook notmuch))

  ;; Add the backend to the major-mode specific backend list
  (defun mail/init-nm-company ()
    (use-package nm-company
      :if (configuration-layer/package-usedp 'company)
      :defer t
      :init (push 'nm-company company-backends-notmuch))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I also have this in keybindings.el, but not sure if that's required
either (company-mode has gotten a lot more integrated with spacemacs
since I configured this):

(local-set-key [tab] 'company-complete)

Hope this helps!
