I can't confirm it.
I use all the time it and it works fine.

Mh, ok... It does not work for me. :-( I'm still getting the error

Is there anything I could do to debug it / determine the cause?

This look like a race condition:

* Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.

* The behaviour is independent of the email, ie. using the same email it
sometimes works and sometimes fails.

* Even opening a mail and repeatedly clicking the same link contained
therein will alternate between opening the link and causing the error
dialog.

Just for reference: My machine has an SSD, in case there really is a
race condition which could be influenced by disk perfmance.

Mh, not really - today it does not work at all, so it somehow seems to
be somewhat arbitratily if it always fails or if it randomly fails and
sometimes works...

How do I debug something like this?

You may try running KMail from a console and look at the console output.

if you run `kcmshell5 componentchooser` and look at the web browser

How can I check which application is chosen for what contents? I've not
had problems invoking my browser (chromium) from KDE applications so far
however and the few times it *does* work from within kMail, chromium is
used.

I get the same output that is also shown in the error dialog:

KRun(0xd965c0) ERROR (stat): 111   "The file or folder https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=352165 does not exist."
KRun(0xd753770) ERROR (stat): 111   "The file or folder https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=352165 does not exist."

(I clicked twice, one error was logged per click.)

`kcmshell5 filetypes` and look at text/html

Ok, difficult to say if there may be a problem - "Chromium-Browser" is
the configured html viewer, but I cannot display details about this
viewer assignment - whenever I click on "edit", no details are shown in
the editor dialog, but this happens for all viewer assignments of all
mime types. Does this editor even work in KDE 5?

I'm also getting this bug all the time.

'kcmshell5 componentchooser' says "in an application based on the
contents of the URL"

'kcmshell5 filetypes' says it's (allegedly) using Konqueror.

In my .xsession-errors I also see:

KRun(0xedace10) ERROR (stat): 111   "The file or folder
