Another emacs/notmuch user checking in. I was in the same boat as you
until trying out spacemacs ~two years ago:

https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs

Now I have the full power of emacs, without carpal-tunnel inducing
keybindings, and with a really sane and flexible configuration system.
They do an amazing job at creating mnemonic key bindings for emacs
modules, e.g. to make a (ma)git commit the combo is <space>-g-c.

Give it a go, if you haven't already :)
