Description
The reason is because, in my place of work, the SSL termination is already performed by the load balancer / gateway, so we really would like the Docker container to _only_ respond to HTTP.
So, it is okay for Mattermost to insist that we access using `https://mm.our.domain.com`, but between the LB/GW and Mattermost, it really should be just plain HTTP.
I took a look at the included `nginx.conf`, and I'm not sure which lines I should 'merge' from the HTTPS server block into the HTTP server block...

Research direction
Start with the included nginx.conf and compare the HTTP and HTTPS server blocks. Identify the configuration needed for the container to serve Mattermost over plain HTTP behind an SSL-terminating load balancer, then document the resulting setup and how to use it.
