This is a normal response from amavisd (very long time ago this worked as a restart, but not any longer, use: 'amavisd reload' for that). Find the guilty script that sends a HUP, and remove it. I suspect some log rotation script. Log from amavisd should go to syslog, directly writing a log file is not recommended. If logging goes to syslog, there is no need to restart amavisd in order to rotate logs.
