create a cron job that looks like this:

-----------------------

#!/bin/sh

/bin/cat /etc/amanda/backup-dir/backup-conf | mail -s "Daily Backup
Conf" your_email_address

-----------------------

You could do this for as many of the config files that you want to keep.
I email my config files to myself monthly.
