Then I try to send message to "user@xxxxxxxxxx" in my Kaddressbook. KDE terminal start with output:

Why "%u" pass to e-mail client instead of "user@xxxxxxxxxx"?
If you have put:
thunderbird_url.sh %u
in the KCM, then KDE will substitute the e-mail address for %u when it
executes the script. Now, to use this in the script, you need to refer
to it as: "$1" {with the quotes} which appears to be what you are doing.
IIUC, this substitution isn't working and you wind up with an address of
%u. I don't know right off why this isn't working at first glance it
looks correct.
