Great - this worked, thanks. I used:

	use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp';
	my($res, $c) = ctx_request('/');

... then I just pass $c into the layer I use for the TT/mailing bit:

	$params{Catalyst} = $c;

	# New MIME::Lite::TT object:
	my $msg = MIME::Lite::TT->new(
      		From        =>  $from,
       	 	To          =>  $to,
        		Subject     =>  $subject,
       		Template    =>  $template_path,
      	  	TmplOptions =>  \%options,
        		TmplParams  =>  \%params,
	);
 
Thanks for your help,

Anthony
