Hey David,

if you are willing to use extbase/fluid-1.3 beta or this project has a wider
timeframe, use this way:

$view = t3lib_div::makeInstance('Tx_Fluid_View_StandaloneView');
$view->setTemplatePathAndFilename(t3lib_extMgm::extPath('khorder').'/Resources/Private/Templates/mailService/HtmlMail.html');
$view->assign('customer', $customer);
$mailContent = $view->render();:

More on that in [1].

With extbase/fluid-1.2.x, it's not thaat pretty.

So long
Andy
