reset password to random - send to user e-mail

request is for a user account to be titled as "help desk". user has cretin granted permissions, but due to security reasons, we are going to have the help desk user only have the ability to reset the password for a users account. this will be an active link for a list of users, and when clicked it will send out a new password *alpha numeric and random* to their e-mail. *this way if the help desk user is wanting to steal some info or sell it on the side, they cant because they have no ability to see the details of the account.

does a canned product similar to or exactly matching exist?

finding something and setting it active in a test environment is my goal for this friday.
