Check two items.   First, the cron file and secondly, RH7.2 uses a smrsh 
directory so instead of:

nsadmin:	"|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post nsadmin"

in your /etc/aliases file, you need 

nsadmin:	|nsadmin

in your aliases file, and in a file in the /etc/smrsh directory named 
"nsadmin" (without the quotes) with permissions 755

|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post nsadmin
