i like the phpmailer for advanced mailing from php. see:
http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/

with that you only nee $smarty->fetch() to get the rendered template
as a string and assign that as mail-body to phpmailer.

a simple example:

/* here initialize $smarty, assign vars etc. */

require("class.phpmailer.php");

$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->Body = $smarty->fetch('html_mail.tpl');
$mail->AltBody = $smarty->fetch('text_mail.tpl');

$mail->AddAddress($to_email, $to_full_name);
if(!$mail->Send()) {
echo "There has been a mail error sending to " . $row["email"] . "<br>";
} else {
// mail was successfully sent.
}
