This is fine.

When Users and Vsites (or server settings) are migrated from an older 
BlueOnyx to a newer one (or vice versa), then not all CODB Classes, 
NameSpaces or database fields may coincide. There are some small 
differences between BlueOnyx versions, as features have been added, 
removed or been changed over the years.

Likewise, the servers may not have the same PKGs or even the same PKG 
versions installed and that also results in some differences as well.

Easy-Migrate takes care of that. It looks at what the source server has, 
checks if the target server has the same Class, NameSpace and database 
fields. And it will only move and configure what it can move and 
configure and will ignore the rest or set safe defaults if input is 
mandatory.

In your case your users on the source server still had the AV-SPAM 
"spamfilterUser" NameSpaces, where the previously installed AV-SPAM 
stored their user-specific AV-SPAM configuration.

If the target server of the migration had the AV-SPAM installed? In that 
case it would have done its best to move that part of the configuration 
as well. But as the target server doesn't have the AV-SPAM installed, it 
simply notes that the NameSpaces aren't present and continues the 
migration anyway.

So that's just an info and not a critical error.
