Hi,

I think the permissions on the private key should be more restrictive by default, they're currently set to world readable and should probably be chmod 600

(I noticed this because opensmtpd considers insecure file perms on the private key a fatal error:
must be at most rwx------)

If we can confirm that all major web servers can read the key even with more restrictive permissions, I'm fine adding a flag e.g. --sensitive-files-mode 660 with a default of 600.
