Metacity has precisely nothing to do with how your mouse is configured;
it's just the window manager.  It manages windows.  Not input devices.

What you need to do is set the Emulate3Buttons directive in your
xorg.conf/XF86Config config file.  Your distro should have some tools
for configuration of your X input devices.  (system-config-mouse in
Fedora, for example)
