Cannot Start Notmuch (invalid-read-syntax "#")

["Charles-André Roy" <caroy47@videotron.ca>]

Hi,

I am using Debian.  I recently installed Bullseye with Emacs 27.1.  Now
I cannot start Notmuch in emacs anymore.  I can download my mail and
send them.  The commands in the terminal work as usual.

At first I would open the .notmuch-config file and make a little change
in the buffer than cancel that change and save the file and Notmuch
would start.  Now it does not start anymore.

I also have a problem with "cl library deprecated" but judging from my
searches on the Web this would be a different issue.

I tried changing the coding system of .notmuch-config but that did not
change the situation.

In my .emacs file I moved up the line

(autoload 'notmuch "notmuch" "notmuch mail" t)

close to the beginning but there was no change.

Any suggestions ?
