The broken user-agent string is a hint to me as to what's going on.  The
Fcc dir is by default set relative to config database.path, which is
determined using notmuch-database-path.  notmuch-database-path calls
notmuch-config-get, which uses shell-command-to-string to get the
config.  And low and behold the only other place we use
shell-command-to-string is in notmuch-version, which is used to create
the user-agent string.  So I'm guessing that shell-command-to-string is
not getting the message that you've added /usr/local/bin to the path
with exec-path.

What happens if you start emacs with /usr/local/bin already in the path,
e.g. (bash):

PATH=3D/usr/local/bin:$PATH emacs -f notmuch

?

jamie.
