(DataFlex) Hotmail OAuth2 Access Token for SMTP, IMAP, POP

See more OAuth2 Examples

Demonstrates how to get an OAuth2 access token for use in the SMTP, IMAP, and POP3 protocols for Hotmail.com, Live.com, and Outlook.com

Note: It is only the initial access token that must be obtained interactively using a browser (see the code and comments below). Once the initial OAuth2 access token is obtained, then it can refreshed indefinitely with no user interaction.
