    sys.exit()

# Is this an HTML email?
if (email.HasHtmlBody() == True):

    # Unpack the HTML to files.  The image and css URLs
    # in the HTML are modified to point to the files extracted to disk.
    unpackDir = "qa_output/emails"
    partsSubdir = "images"
    htmlFilename = "happyHour.html"
    success = email.UnpackHtml(unpackDir,htmlFilename,partsSubdir)
