The messaging menu is not very useful at the moment as geary does not use it to 
display unread mails.
I have been using luna beta for 2 months and geary is the least useful app IMO 
as it does not notify of new email, i tried replying using it but didnt like it.
I am pro notification center for L+1 but till then we should keep the messaging 
menu and persuade Yorba people to support background email check and 
notification via messaging menu.
