cd /usr/local/etc/
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mikoim/email2slack/master/email2slack

# Before using, You must edit config file
vim /usr/local/etc/email2slack

In this case, setuptools create script to call email2slack and place it in bin directory automatically. So you should use the script in Setup MTA section.
