Suggestion Update Readme for non standard https ports #250

Closed vajonam closed 6 years ago

While doing this for the very first time I stubmed on the fact that alex wont work on non-standard https ports.

Finally found this, would be obvious to anyone who and done this before, but not for a first time user.

The Alexa service is strict regarding app endpoints. It will only call out using HTTPS on port 443 whether it's calling an app during development or deployed to production.

The service must accept requests on port 443.
