Craigslist does not provide a Send button. It offers the poster (advertiser) several means of eliciting responses. The main ones are:

contact information in the body of the post, which could be an email address or a phone number.
A "Reply to" link at the top of the post. This is handy for the poster because it denies permanent access information to spammers. (The "Reply to" link will not be good after the post has expired.)

So what you need to do is examine the post for contact information as outlined above
