Unfortunately it doesn't in this case ;-) see my reply below:

It would help if we can see the complete list here. Unfortunately,
unless notmuch encounters a problem and value of `gnus-verbose' is > 6,
`nnir-tmp-buffer' would be erased. In your case notmuch runs perfectly
well.

However, after looking at the code of `nnir-retrieve-headers` more
closely, I think I narrowed down the range of possible courses a bit.

The offending line of code `(sort (mapcar 'cdr articleids) '<)` for one
of your searchs would translate into something like this:

   (sort (mapcar 'cdr (cadr 
                    '("nnmaildir+Lokal:Privat"
                      ((1 . 349)
                       (2 . 446)
                       (3 . 506)
                       (4 . 333))))) '<)

In this case it would run and give you the result:

   '(333 349 446 506)

But down the line, one or more of the articles would have ID(s) that are
nil. Maybe it's a file that's not properly synced. In the search result
it probably looks like this:

   ["nnmaildir+Lokal:SomeFolder" nil 0]

As Eric mentioned, it is important to see the whole list. To get the
whole list generated by `nnir-run-notmuch', you can wrap your search
like this:

     (progn
      (setq xbuff (generate-new-buffer "*my output*"))
      (print (nnir-run-notmuch '((query . "hock")) "nnmaildir:Lokal") xbuff)
      (switch-to-buffer xbuff ))

Then you can copy the content of *my output* and paste it here. If
indeed there were some nils in the result, we should be able to find the
corresponding file using `nnmaildir-article-number-to-file-name' and
more elisp.
