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

    // 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
