Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
courier-webadmin:
  Installed: 0.78.0-2ubuntu2

fresh install. Calling the cgi fails due to wrong permissions on password file:
  
ERROR: /etc/courier/webadmin/password is world/group readable!

setup script wrongly creates the password file group readable and with wrong 
owner:
-rw-r----- 1 root courier 17 Sep 23 10:54 /etc/courier/webadmin/password


manually changing it resolves the reported problem:
chmod 0600 /etc/courier/webadmin/password
chown courier /etc/courier/webadmin/password

I suggest to adjust the setup script to set permissions accordingly

I have the impression that other file permissions/ownership in
/etc/courier/ might be broken as well...
