Those elpa-mailscripts also rely on calling notmuch show 
--format=mbox.

The elisp files (similar to what I had been using) shell out to 
the same Python scripts I was originally using (from the 
mailscripts package, but same source package on Debian) and the 
Python scripts in turn wrap notmuch show --format=mbox. So that's 
where I already was before starting the thread; scripts that don't 
work because --format=mbox doesn't decrypt the patches.


(Even though I am working on moving from them to b4 since someone told
me it supposedly does a slightly better job at guessing the base commit
when people send patches for old versions without formatting the patch
with --base so I was NIH making my own wrappers for notmuch show
--format=mbox similar to the ones in mailscripts.)
