You will have to have ftp write to a log. It uses returns codes like 101 and 203.
You'll have read thru the log to interpret them.
http://www.the-eggman.com/seminars/ftp_error_codes.html
However, if you can come up with some kind of unique file naming convention or delete all of the files in the destination directory (maybe create a special /tmp directory that you can clobber when you're done), then you can simply test for the size or existence of the file(s) using
[ -f filename ] and [ -z filename ]
and you can skip all of the logging nonsense
