/tmp has 1.8 GB free (all other partitions have plenty of space as well)
and I did a dig on the name as well as checked the /etc/hosts file and
the correct information comes back from both of them. 
I have tried to start amdump as the user amanda by running "amdump
DailySet1" and I get the same thing kicked back to me in the email with
no errors coming back to me on the terminal.
