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

    http := chilkat.NewHttp()

    // Use your previously obtained access token here:
    http.SetAuthToken("MICROSOFT_GRAPH_ACCESS_TOKEN")

    // This example will search /Inbox for a message we want to delete.
    // First we need to get the folder ID for /Inbox.
    // Then we'll search for messages based on some criteria, and delete the matching messages.

    // Get the folder ID for /Inbox from the folder map created by this example
