yes, here is an athor's description:

RIT asked to exclude internal learning mechanizm - because it can't hold The
Bat! folders correctly anyway (because .tbb is not oficially documented and may
be changed at any time, also because it can't hold SecureBat's bases). Stefan
suppose to use mass "mark as..." action for training - and now it is the only
way to train the filter (however, you can just ignore any training and only mark
incoming spam as spam - the rest will be assumed as non-spam and will be trained
automatically. I found that even without any training filter begins to work fine
in about 2-3 days after installation (when receiving about 100 letters per
day)).
