Look in your taskbar and when e-mail scan is active a  small mail icon will appear as long as the scan is in progress

Check the email header information, it should shoe something like this:
X-Antivirus: avast! (VPS 0602-3, 13/01/2006), Inbound message
X-Antivirus-Status: Clean

You can also check the on-access detailed view for the Internet Mail provider, the Scanned Count: should increase.
