Let's say that the 'mail.html' view provides the HTML for the email body
(whether that's ZPT, Python, or whatever doesn't matter), then you can
simply do:
>>> from zope.component import getMultiAdapter
>>> view = getMultiAdapter((obj, request), name="@@mail.html")
>>> html_email_body = view()
>>> from email.MIMEText import MIMEText
>>> message = MIMETExt(html_email_body.encode('utf-8'),
...'text/html', 'utf-8')
>>> # etc.
>>> from zope.component import getUtility
>>> mailer = getUtility(IMailDelivery, 'your-delivery-utility')
>>> mailer.send(from, to, message.as_string())
