within a controller action, I have done something like
$this->_helper->layout->setLayout('foobaz');
$mailer = new Zend_Mail( );
$mailer->addTo( $user->email, "$user->firstname $user->lastname" )
->setBodyText ( $this->view->render( 'your/view.phtml' ) )
->setFrom ( 'interpret...@nysd.uscourts.gov', "Southern District

)->send ();
}
