Wow!  Amanda, by design, is supposed to clean those up when the tape is 
over-written, and generally has done that here over the last 7 or 8 years.  You 
may want to look at your install, make sure these logs are indeed where the 
amanda.conf tells it to put them for starters.

in that particulat philosophy myself.
