Office365 Send Email using SMTP with OAuth2 Authentication

See more Office365 Examples

Demonstrates how to send email from smtp.office365.com using OAuth2 authentication. Go

    success := false

    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    // 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 authorization via a web browser.  Afterwards, the access token
    // can be repeatedly refreshed automatically (with no user interaction).

    // 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.
