You're going to have to download it before attaching. Try something like this...

var request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(fileUrl);

using (var response = request.GetResponse())
{
    using (var responseStream = response.GetResponseStream())
    {
        var message = new MailMessage("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "subject", "body");
        message.Attachments.Add(new Attachment(responseStream, "myfile.pdf"));
        var smtpClient = new SmtpClient();
        smtpClient.Send(message);
    }
}
