Because webmail is started by root. It needs to start as root, of course, in order to drop root to the appropriate uid/gid for each account. Given that it must be started by root, anyway, 700 are the minimum permissions. There's no harm in setting it to 755, however it's always a good idea to set permissions only to the minimum that's required.
