//  For example, imagine our SharePoint endpoint is https://xyzoffice.mycompany.com/
//  The SHAREPOINT_NTLM_DOMAIN would be "mycompany.com"
//  The SHAREPOINT_HTTPS_DOMAIN would be "xyzoffice.mycompany.com"
//  Also, the SHAREPOINT_USERNAME would be just the name, not a full email address.
//  for example, "chilkat" instead of "chilkat@mycompany.com"

//  establish the cookie as shown at SharePoint Online Authentication
