Indicate corresponding author in llncs tempate

Question

According to the Springer's guidelines, I am requred to use llncs documentclass (as in the template) and to indicate the corresponding author.

Unfortunately neither the guidelines, the template nor this instruction covers how may I do it in the llncs documentclass.

Of course I can provide e-mail with my affiliation, but there are other authors from my institute. Also I may claim that there is a Corresponding author: foo@bar.com institute and (despite of an evident violation of the semantics) I would go that way the affiliations were not automatically enumerated. I believe the corresponding author should be indicated more clearly than the biggest superscript number.
The thanks macro also is not what I expect as it results in a footnote, not a part of the title.

I hope you found your answer. If someone else stumbles upon this question, here is what they need to do.
First, add the following package.
usepackage[misc,geometry]{ifsym}

Then, add it within the author command.
author{John Smith Letterinst{1}orcidID{0000-0000-0000-0000}}

I got this from the following webpage: LaTex forum

What I did was an obvious abuse of semantics:
author{Name1inst{1}orcidID{0000-0001-2345-6789}$spadesuit$ and
        Name2inst{1}orcidID{0000-0002-3456-7891} and
        Name3inst{1,2}orcidID{0000-0002-3456-7892}
}
%
authorrunning{Name1 et al.}
% First names are abbreviated in the running head.
% If there are more than two authors, 'et al.' is used.
%
institute{Institute1, Somewhere and
           Institute2, Somewhere else
           $spadesuit$ Corresponding author: email{foo@bar.com}
}
