# 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",
