"M-x toggle-debug-on-error" and then trying to show the message should
give you a backtrace.  But before doing that also "M-x eval-buffer" in
"notmuch-show.el" to make it more meaningful.

With only that information my guess is that
  (plist-get part :content-type)
returns nil, which "downcase" understandably isn't happy with.

The "part" plist comes from "notmuch show ..." in
"notmuch-query-get-threads", so one problem seems to be that that
can return nil as the type (as opposed to e.g. "unknown/unknown")
while this elisp function (and maybe others) expect a string.

And another problem seems to be that notmuch cannot determine the type
of some part even though "email-print-mime-structure" can.  You should
be able to figure out which part by adding a debug statement such as:

  (message "> %S" part)
