[MlMt] Fingers crossed for O365 OAUTH success

Does anyone have any instructions to give to IT on how to provide access 
to a particular app? I assume there's some kind of client cert 
information to enable MailMate.

This article seems to be addressing a similar issue: 
https://entelo.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020177372-Office-365-Admin-Approval-Needed

They say that the MS administrator should go to 
`https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/authorize?client_id=13697ced-2637-45b2-be6e-d44f83598e31&response_type=code&prompt=admin_consent` 
to enable their app. Which makes me wonder if a similar URL for 
MailMate, with a different client_id, would work.
