I installed this version on Sunday as well and have had the same
problems.  There appear to be a few brackets missing!

In mail_password_template, change

From: "&dtml-email_from_name;" <&dtml-email_from_address>

to 

From: "&dtml-email_from_name;" <<&dtml-email_from_address>>

And

To: <dtml-var email>

to 

To: <<dtml-var email>>

Do the same in 'registered_notify'

If that still doesn't work, then change 

mailhost="MailHost"

to 

smtphost="my.smtpserver.com"
