Training your GWAVA 4 system is crucial for efficiently blocking spam.  Our heuristic (rule-based) scanner blocks a large percentage of spam right out of the box, without any configuration or maintenance.  But a much higher percentage can be blocked using the probability engine, which you can tailor to your own environment using the methods described in the GWAVA 4 Spam Guide.
