Not unless you are looking  for a file that is 4 characters long, any 
character '.' followed by the string log?  You probably meant:

FILE "%.*log" yellow SIZE<1024 MTIME<600 TRACK # notice the '.*' after %

You want any number of characters or filename that ends with the string 
'log'?

Assuming you have setup entries in client-local.cfg on the server to 
extract filenames that will end in 'log'?
