Greetings!
Emacs 24.4.1 (Arch Linux if that helps)
Notmuch 0.19
The problem is that I can neither compose a new email nor reply to an old
email unless I have already used message mode (via Gnus) first.
I get an error message - Google on the error message below gets me nowhere!
Can anyone give me pointer?
with thanks
Glyn

Can you duplicate the error with a minimal .emacs? In particular save
the following to "run-notmuch.el" and start emacs with
% emacs -Q --load run-emacs.el
;; -8x-------------------------------------------------------------
;; adjust the following line to point to either the .el or .elc of
;; notmuch.el
(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/notmuch/dot/el")
(require 'notmuch)
(notmuch-mua-mail)
;; -8x-------------------------------------------------------------
If that doesn't error, then the most likely trigger is some setting or
add on package in your .emacs. Once we know what the trigger is, we can
try to figure out where bug lies.

Thanks David,
It didn't error!
A thorough trawl through init.el revealed that this line is the culprit
(setq message-mail-user-agent t)
which refers on to mail-user-agent, which was invoking gnus!
Sorry for the noise.

Instead of noise I think this is valuable information...
... if we had "troubleshooting" (or just put to emacstips.mdwn) page
we could add something along the line:
emacs -Q -L /path/to/notmuch/elisp/dir --eval "(require 'notmuch)"
(with some explanation) there (e.g. M-x notmuch-hello & M-x notmuch-mua-mail)
(emacs manpage says -L 'add's this dir to load-path -- I verified
it "prepends"! it to load-path (like add-to-list does by default))
