I personally like it that way. I check them when I want to and not when they arrive.

I'm not talking about push notifications, simply addding a unobtrusive visual alert in the main interface is ok; you can still defer the check but you know if currently there is something without the physiological pressure to random check. This is a standard good UI/UX pattern.

Something like that would be nice, but push notifications (for me) are not necessary.
