    // Important: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.68 or greater.

    // 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:
    // See the following examples for getting an access token:
    //    Get Microsoft Graph OAuth2 Access Token (Azure AD v2.0 Endpoint).
    //    Get Microsoft Graph OAuth2 Access Token (Azure AD Endpoint).
    //    Refresh Access Token (Azure AD v2.0 Endpoint).
    //    Refresh Access Token (Azure AD Endpoint).

    http.SetAuthToken("MICROSOFT_GRAPH_ACCESS_TOKEN")

    // To send mail, we'll POST to the following endpoint:
    // 
    // POST /users/{id | userPrincipalName}/sendMail
    // 
    // (The special keyword "me" may be used in place of a principal name.)
    // 

    // This example will send HTML email containing the following HTML body:

    // 	<html>
    // 	<head>
    // 	<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
    // 	<meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
    // 	</head>
    // 	<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
    // 	<font face="Calibri">This is a test <b>HTML email</b>.<br>
    // 	</font>
    // 	</body>
    // 	</html>

    // Build the HTML body...
    bCrlf := true

    sbHtmlBody.AppendLine("<html>",bCrlf)
    sbHtmlBody.AppendLine("<head>",bCrlf)

    sbHtmlBody.AppendLine("</body>",bCrlf)
    sbHtmlBody.AppendLine("</html>",bCrlf)

    // The body of the POST request contains JSON that specifies the email subject, body,
    // recipients, etc.  This example will build the following JSON HTML email:
