As far as I know that means it's finished, since amstatus looks for a
'work-in-progress' log instead of a completed log.
When I had a problem like this, it turned out that sometimes my sendmail
wasn't getting DNS, so the messages sat in a queue, and would eventually
have been bounced. Does procmail have a similar queue?

Yes, this was actually the first thing I did:
% amstatus DailySet1
no /usr/local/etc/amanda/DailySet1/log/amdump file at
/usr/local/sbin/amstatus
line 87.
I assume that this means it finished?
