#  To send email, 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.)
#  

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

#  	{
#  	  "message": {
#  	    "subject": "Meet for lunch?",
#  	    "body": {
#  	      "contentType": "Text",
