Owner of the link was root.root,  I changed it to mail.mail. Current permissions
are:

ls -l /etc/smrsh/wrapper
lrwxrwxrwx    1 mail     mail           31 May  3 16:31 /etc/smrsh/wrapper ->
/usr/local/mailman/mail/wrapper
ls -l /usr/local/mailman/mail/wrapper 
-rwxr-xr-x    1 mail     maillist    37461 May  3 18:02
/usr/local/mailman/mail/wrapper

Still get:
