I perceived the product incorrectly, just like GP did.
The people I know who don't use Slack yet are mostly older and mostly use Outlook. I think they'd be confused and irritating if we sent them emails with the frequency of chat.
Especially phone email notifications are not tuned to correctly handle instant messages.
I have often dreamed of a similar concept, but have never been able to work the UX out in my mind. Hopefully you have. Best of luck!
