spamassassin works through a set of rules, hence it can determine spam straight away; you can modify the action of spamassassin by training it as well. bogofilter works only by learning. If you only train a spam filter on bad messages, it will assume all mail is bad (because it doesn't know any difference) hence the programs are designed to not make any decisions until the database is sufficiently large to determine what is *and is not* spam.
