$from_address = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
$to_address = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
$subject = ESMF Registration Form;
%mail = (
SMTP= 'finster.scd.ucar.edu',

You need to leave off the single quotes around $from_address, $to_address,
and $subject.
%mail = (
SMTP= 'finster.scd.ucar.edu',
from= $from_address,
to = $to_address,
subject = $subject,
);

I should have pointed out that here single quotes
are just what you want, to stop it expanding

$from _address will not interpolate in single quotes. No quotes needed
around $from_address, $to_address or $subject.
