+<p>SpamAssassin works through a set of predefined rules, hence it can determine spam straight away. Bogofilter does not come with a default set of spam criteria so it will not automatically filter anything after installing it. You must <link xref="mail-spam-marking">train it</link> first to make it work. You can modify the actions of SpamAssassin by training it as well.</p>
