It is related to your Thunderbird email client with HTML
("rich text") as opposed to plain text format.  Either your email
client or the mailing list server is generating a plain text
representation of the email, where the hyperlinks are converted to
a form with numbered cross-references at the end of the message.

If you compose your email in "plain text" format rather than HTML,
you will be able to insert and format the links exactly as you want
them to appear to readers.
