// To send email, we'll POST to the following endpoint:
// 
// POST /users/{id | userPrincipalName}/sendMail
// 
// (The special keyword "me" may be used in place of a principal name.)
// 

// The body of the POST request contains JSON that specifies the email subject, body,
// recipients, etc.  This example will build the following JSON email:
// 

// 	{
// 	  "message": {
// 	    "subject": "Meet for lunch?",
// 	    "body": {
// 	      "contentType": "Text",
