' An Office365 OAuth2 access token must first be obtained prior
' to running this code.

' Getting the OAuth2 access token for the 1st time requires the O365 account owner's 
' interactive authorizaition via a web browser.  Afterwards, the access token
' can be repeatedly refreshed automatically.

' See the following examples for getting and refreshing an OAuth2 access token

' Get Office365 SMTP/IMAP/POP3 OAuth2 Access Token
' Refresh Office365 SMTP/IMAP/POP3 OAuth2 Access Token

' First get our previously obtained OAuth2 access token.
