Answer 1

I spent some time looking into this a few months ago. v1.2.10 doesn't support deleting older log files based on rolling by date. It is on the task list for the next release. I took the source code and added the functionality myself, and posted it for others if they are interested. The issue and the patch can be found at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-27 .
