I'd suggest, you move your kmail folder to a different location, copy it, remove all indices from the copy.
killall kmail
mv /home/gene/Mail /home/gene/Mail-old
cp -a /home/gene/Mail-old /home/gene/Mail
find /home/gene/Mail -name \*.index\* -exec rm \{\} \;
kmail
kmail will start again and rebuild indizes. But I would take a close look at the smart values of the harddisk.
An other option could be that the installed software on the harddisk is corrupted. I had some months ago a defect archive in /var/cache/apt/archives and I could not figure out which one it was. Had to delete all archives, then purge the software + dependecies, then reinstall it. That fixed the problem, but did not leave me especially happy, 'cause I could not uderstand how that could happen. First I thoughtthat it was silent bitrot on the SSD :/
Thunderbird has it's own oddities - I am not sure if migrating to that leviathan is a good idea.
