[docs] add some documentation about imap regression tests
This is quite manual for the moment being, and it's not integrated into the unittests. But it is useful to have it documented, with some luck we can automate the process even more and add it to the CI quite soon.

+IMAP Message Rendering Regressions
+----------------------------------
+
+For testing the IMAP server implementation, there is a litte regressions script
+that needs some manual work from your side.
+
+First of all, you need an already initialized account. Which for now basically
+means you have created a new account with a provider that offers the Encrypted
+Mail Service, using the Bitmask Client wizard. Then you need to log in with that
+account, and let it generate the secrets and sync with the remote for a first
+time. After this you can run the twistd server locally and offline.
+
+From the ``leap.mail.imap.tests`` folder, and with an already initialized server
+running::
+
+ ./regressions_mime_struct user@provider pass path_to_samples/
+
+You can find several message samples in the ``leap/mail/tests`` folder.
