Procedure Test
    Boolean iSuccess
    Handle hoJson
    String sAccessToken
    Handle hoMailman
    Variant vEmail
    Handle hoEmail
    String sTemp1

    Move False To iSuccess

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

    // See Get GMail SMTP Access Token 
    // for sample code showing how to obtain a GMail SMTP access token for desktop apps.

    // In this example, our access token was previously saved to the following file which contains JSON like this:
    // 	{
    // 	 "access_token": "ya39.Ci-XA_C5bGgRDC3UaD-h0_NeL-DVIQnI2gHtBBBHkZzrwlARkwX6R3O0PCDEzRlfaQ",
    // 	 "token_type": "Bearer",
    // 	 "expires_in": 3600,
    // 	 "refresh_token": "1/r_2c_7jddspcdfesrrfKqfXtqo08D6Q-gUU0DsdfVMsx0c"
    // 	}
