I think the following in ~/.thunderbird/<your_profile_dir>/user.js 
(which may not exist by default):

user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "/usr/X11R6/bin/firefox");
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https", "/usr/X11R6/bin/firefox");
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.ftp", "/usr/X11R6/bin/firefox");

Mind the wrap... its three lines.
