func chilkatTest() {

    // An Office365 OAuth2 access token must first be obtained prior

    // 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.
