Hi there. Bit of a n00b to notmuch and having some problems using it
alongside gnupg to decrypt emails in Emacs.
I'm running Emacs 24.5.1 on Ubuntu 15.10 (x86_64) with notmuch v 0.20.2 and
the emacs notmuch package 20160108.432 from melpa (but have had identical
results with v 0.21 from melpa-stable).
Following the instructions on the emacstips page
<https://notmuchmail.org/emacstips/>, I'm inserting
`(notmuch-crypto-process-mime t)` into my `init.el` file -- after
successfully running `(require `notmuch)`. I get the error
Symbol's function definition is void: notmuch-crypto-process-mime
Have searched around a bit and not been able to turn up any fixes. Does
anyone have any pointers as to how I could troubleshoot and/or links to any
step-by-step tutorials for getting this setup?
Thanks in advance,
Austin

The emacs frontend for notmuch ships with the C source. You should use
matching versions. Other versions _might_ work, but are not guaranteed
to. MELPA is kindof unuseful for things like notmuch that need C
libraries; it's easy to get badly out of sync.
On the other hand, the problem you mention sounds unrelated...

I think you want (setq notmuch-crypto-process-mime t); it's a variable,
not a function.

Thank you David!
Using `setq` cleared things up. Should have caught that. Is there any way
to contribute a patch to the docs (which omit `setq`) to help other n00bs
along the way avoid the same pitfall?
Also: I'd like to get version parity between my version of notmuch and my
version of notmuch-emacs, but am not quite sure how to build form source as
you suggest. (Tried poking around the docs and couldn't turn anything up.)
Any pointers?
When you say the frontend "ships with the C source" what does that mean? Or
perhaps more to the point: how can I find and use the C source to build the
binary? Once built, how can I make sure the new version is what I run from
Emacs since I'm currently running the version from Melpa, etc...?
Thank you in advance for your patience. I really appreciate the help! Not
to mention the fantastic program! :)

Will try building from source. Any pointers

Ah, I see there is a typo on that page. It would be great if you could
fix it.
You can find instructions for editing the wiki here:

download the source from
https://notmuchmail.org/releases/LATEST-notmuch-0.21.tar.gz
unpack that, and there is a file called INSTALL with instructions on how
to build and install.
You can find the versions by typing 'v' in the notmuch-hello buffer.

Thanks for being so welcoming and helpful David! Just pushed an update to
the docs.
(Note: I pushed to a separate branch first
[aguestuser-fix-emacstips-crypto-section], before realizing the project
suggests just pushing to master and doing that, so apologies if I cluttered
up the remote repo!)

No worries, I deleted the extra branch.
