No, these gtk errors happen all the time in nearly all applications
using it (darktable included). They are neither "critical" for the gui
nor relevant for us.
Does the file, which is to be attached, really exist in the temporary
directory?

Here is the output for my case. It *is* working here.

(I deleted the glib messages.)

To compare: The [email] line is the same.
The detected DE is another one of course. But in your case, cinnamon is
detected as gnome. In my case, exo-open is used (and works), in your
case it's gvfs-open.

Could you try running the exo-open manually? Here is mine adapted for
your filename:
exo-open
"mailto:?subject=images%20exported%20from%20darktable&body=%20%2D%201401395041.jpg%20%281/inf%20f/0%2C0%200mm%20iso%200%29%0D%0A&attach=/home/rlch/.local/tmp/PK5%5F3612.jpg";

I hope I can help a bit,
Sebastian
