ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The crucial bit seems to be
"GBM is not supported with the current configuration. Fallback to Vulkan
rendering in Chromium."
I searched the internet for suggestions and I found I can work around this bug
if I start kmail as follows:
$ QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS="--disable-gpu" kmail
In that case the GBM/Vulkan fallback message is not shown and kmail is fully
functional.
Bug 501858 is also about issues with Vulkan, albeit on plasmashell rather than
kmail2. That bug suggests the main issue is that plasma/kmail fall back to
software rendering on my system for some reason. Vulkan is the fallback
renderer, but that one doesn't seem stable.
So the main question to answer here is, why is my system falling back to
software rendering in the first place ? The complaint about GBM above seems to
be a hint, but I don't know enough about how the graphics stack solve this
myself.
As bug 501858 also asked the OP for the output of eglinfo, I have attached mine
to this bug. Note that while generating this output, eglinfo already printed
warnings on my console:
$ eglinfo > eglinfo.txt

I don't know if they are relevant.
