--- Comment #4 from Sven Eden <sven.eden at gmx.de> ---
I have resolved my issue:

Nothing I found on the internet worked. Then I stumbled about a several year
old post, where someone on a Kubuntu system suggested to purge sonnet.

So I unmerged (deinstalled) kde-frameworks/sonnet-5.90.0 from my system.
As several other packages where linked against
/usr/lib64/libKF5SonnetCore.so.5.90.0 and /usr/lib64/libKF5SonnetUi.so.5.90.0,
the Gentoo build manager Portage kept those libraries nevertheless.
There is a special install target to rebuild those packages ("emerge
@preserved-rebuild"), which I ran.

It did not only re-install sonnet, but also rebuilt
kde-frameworks/ktextwidgets-5.90.0
kde-apps/kpimtextedit-21.12.2
kde-apps/kanagram-21.12.2
kde-plasma/kdeplasma-addons-5.24.0
kde-plasma/kmenuedit-5.24.0
kde-plasma/plasma-desktop-5.24.0
kde-apps/libksieve-21.12.2
kde-apps/messagelib-21.12.2
kde-apps/ktp-text-ui-21.12.2
kde-apps/parley-21.12.2
kde-frameworks/khtml-5.90.0
kde-frameworks/ktexteditor-5.90.0

and finally:
kde-apps/kmail-21.12.2

The next time I tried to start Kontact, it showed up, and opened dozens of
windows with an empty e-mail to the person I originally tried to reply to.
After I had closed (and discarded) all these windows, everything seemed to be
fine.

I am still testing, but it seems Kontact is back to normal.
