Well, I do it this way.

I right-click the link or email address. There is almost always an option to copy it.

Then I start a new message in Thunderbird, address it and paste the copied link from the clipboard into the email message.

This may seem a bit cumbersome to you, but it pretty much always works, whereas I don't expect many applications to offer me a "send to" option, and when they do, I'd carefully scrutinize what it offered anyway. Is it going to send the link, or the content? I was caught out this way myself today. I tried to post an image from my tablet to dropbox and all that arrived was the image's URL. :-(
