The server will respond with a login screen where you provide:
- The email address you use to log into the web site such as
myemail@venue.orgNote: if you have multiple logins in an outlet version of TM so there is ambiguity as to who you are, you may need to type your email address followed by:
- ;outlet=xx such as
myemail@venue.org;outlet=xx-and/or- - ;patron=yy such as
myemail@venue.org;outlet=xx;patron=yy
