This is a standard way to deal with external packages in emacs. The
setup stuff goes in the site start file. The exact location is
distribution dependent, but generally it is something like
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/.
You should not worry about these details if you are using notmuch-emacs
as provided by your distribution. Just put your personal configurations
in your ~/.emacs or better yet, use customize to set and save them.
Then `M-x notmuch RET' should get you started.
Hope this helps,
