Hi Nicolas,
thanks for your answer. 
Just checked it and thought of something like this:

$renderer = t3lib_div::makeInstance('Tx_Fluid_View_TemplateView');
$controllerContext = 
t3lib_div::makeInstance('Tx_Extbase_MVC_Controller_ControllerContext');
$controllerContext->setRequest(t3lib_div::makeInstance('Tx_Extbase_MVC_Re
quest'));
$renderer->setControllerContext($controllerContext);
$template = t3lib_extMgm::extPath($this->extKey) . 
'Resources/Private/register.tmpl';
$renderer->setTemplatePathAndFilename($template);
$renderer->assign('helloworld', $helloworld);
$rendered = $renderer->render();


then pass the $rendered to mail mail service.
Works fine for me...

Cheers
Mario
