I think this has not been upstreamed yet, is there any reason for that?
I just commented on the upstream bug with a link to the patch.

Title:
  Thunderbird attachment name changes cause send error

Status in nautilus-sendto:

Status in “nautilus-sendto” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “nautilus-sendto” source package in Oneiric:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus-sendto

  I've got Thunderbird set up as my default MUA in Gnome.  (System ->
  Preferences -> Preferred applications.)  When I right-click on a file
  in Nautilus -> Send To..., the attachment name shows up in an e-mail
  composition window.  However, the name of the attachment is messed up.

  If I'm attaching a file called "Personal Learning Plan -
  2010-2011.pdf", it gets renamed to
  "Personal%20Learning%20Plan%20-%202010-2011.pdf" with some sort of URL
  encoding.  When clicking send, this results in the following error:

  "Sending of message failed.
  Unable to open the temporary file /path/to/file/Learning%20plans/Personal%20Learning%20Plan%20-%202010-2011.pdf. Check your 'Temporary Directory' setting."

  However, there's nothing wrong with this directory setting, as it
  works fine without using Send To.

  The workaround:
  1) Right click on the attachment -> Remove Attachment.
  2) Click on Attach, and then select the file from the file browser.
  3) The file name will now be correct, without the URL encoding.
  4) The message can now be sent.

  There is a bit of a discussion on this topic over at
