I commented out mail-source-primary-source and added mail-sources and
it now works just fine:

;(setq mail-source-primary-source `(pop :server ,(getenv "MAILHOST") :user 
,my-email-user-name))
(setq mail-sources `((pop :server ,(getenv "MAILHOST") :user 
,my-email-user-name)))

Is this a bug I should file somewhere?
