7341b78aba emacs: instruct user to autoload notmuch instead of require'ing it
When (require 'notmuch) is added to ~/.emacs notmuch is loaded to every
instance of emacs although it may not be used in majority of
those instances.

When (autoload 'notmuch "notmuch" ...) is added to ~/.emacs notmuch
is loaded (only) when user invokes the notmuch function.

User may want to add other entrypoints to notmuch by adding more
autoloads -- the autoload instruction given should offer them clue how
to do so.

ecfc8df476 INSTALL/README: Clean up the description of how to run the emacs interface.
The INSTALL file still had old information about the "make
install-emacs" command which no longer exists. README was also giving
pointers on how to develop a real interface, (which is not the right
thing since README should be addressed to users, not coders).

So remove the stale and misplaced information, and instead add a new
"Running notmuch" section to the README describing how to run the
notmuch command-line interface and how to run the emacs interface.

3ab18d1c22 README: Mention that notmuch only supports maildir or mh format.
Justin B Rye pointed out (in Debian bug #566282) that a user with mail
in mbox format can spend a lot of time investigating notmuch before
realizing that mbox is not supported. Head that off with a more
detailed mention in the README blurb.

184625ac9b README: Tighten up the text a bit.
As Keith pointed out, (with a humorous citation from Mark Twain),
the two uses of "very" added nothing to the description. Also,
"large collection of email" was repeated uselessly.

26a4741b9c README: Mention the actual mailing list address now that it exists.
Much better than telling people to mail me individually.
