I solved it:
in my /etc/freshclam.conf there was still
#DatabaseMirror db.XY.clamav.net
obviously freshclam then takes a default server
( database.clamav.net ?)
which has no DST and therefore the 
"DNS record is older than 3 hours." message.

Putting 
DatabaseMirror db.AT.clamav.net
into the config file solved the issue.

Best regards
