    var success = false;

    //  First, for the purpose of understanding the structure of the MIME,
    //  let's load the MIME into a Chilkat MIME object and examine the MIME structure.
    var mime = new chilkat.Mime();

    success = mime.LoadMimeFile("qa_data/eml/TMobileTextMsg.eml");
    //  Show the MIME structure in text format (as opposed to XML format).
    console.log(mime.GetStructure("text"));

    //  The MIME structure for our test email looks like this:
    //  multipart/related
    //      text/html
    //      text/plain
    //      image/gif
    //      image/gif
    //      image/gif

    //  The HTML part is not considered a "related item" because the related items
    //  are defined as being related to the HTML part.  Therefore, we should always
    //  expect to find a text/html part under a multipart/related.  The HTML parts
    //  is simply the HTML body, and the other parts are the related items.
    //  If the text/plain part was to be considered as an alternative body,
    //  then a properly structured email would include a multipart/alternative structure.

    var email = new chilkat.Email();

    success = email.LoadEml("qa_data/eml/TMobileTextMsg.eml");

    //  We should see 4 related items.
    console.log("Num Related Items = " + email.NumRelatedItems);
    //  There should be 0 attachments.  
    console.log("Num Attachments = " + email.NumAttachments);

    //  Find the indices of the text/plain related part, and the text/html related part
    var i = 0;
