Hi,
It is not automatically updating because to update, this needs to happen: 1. download source 2. ./configure --with-your-specific-options 3. make 4. stop clam daemon 5. Maybe stop or pause other programs, like amavisd or your mail server 6. make install 7. Start everything back up. 8. See if it works. If not, backgrade, or rebuild & try again.
In short, its just too much to do automagically, unless you want to put in a lot of work to try and automate all that.
Simply rely on your distribution package repositories and your local yum/apt/up2date/emerge/... dependencies manager. Though finding both reliable and up-to-date repositories for some distributions can be painful (RH8 comes to my mind).
