This is essentially notmuch-emacs complaining that it was interrupted,
so not really telling us about the underlying issue.

To be honest, I'm a bit surprised this works. How does emacs find
notmuch.el in this case? Or did you maybe mean emacs -q?

I suggest using M-x toggle-debug-on-quit, so that you get a traceback.

It may help to specify versions of notmuch and emacs when reporting problems.

If you can get the text you want, then you can copy and paste it into a
message composition buffer (e.g. from C-x m). notmuch show --format=text
may offer your best bet of recovering message text.
