Important to note: This is completely ignored when hosting in IIS.
If you get "Could not find a base address that matches scheme https for the endpoint with binding BasicHttpBinding" at some point and you're hosting in IIS then don't bother trying to mess around with <baseAddresses>.

You might need to add a protocol binding to IIS, this is not to be confused with WCF bindings. If you are adding Secure transport (SSL) then add the HTTPS binding to IIS and choose your certificate.
