Nope, its just not very clear.  It tells you it found f-prot / clam and
its updating them [by which it means it is running the updater].

Julian, perhaps the "Updating $NAME" should be changed to "Running
${NAME}-autoupdate" just to avoid any confusion n future?

You can see the output of the updater by looking in your maillog.  Try..

grep -i f-prot /var/log/maillog      [Substitute the correct path/file!]

This should help as the f-prot-autoupdate script catches quite a few
errors.
