Of course, SNF also can plug into SA. However SNF tends to be much
leaner than SA with comparable (or even slightly better) capture
rates. You may want to run SNF in front of SA to get rid of most of
the junk and rapidly inform local blocking lists and gray-listing
mechanisms. The combination of SA & SNF is superior to either on it's
own if you have the technical resources.
