Can't make any search on mailbox

Question

I just did an upgrade from Exchange 2010 envinroment to Exchange 2016. The migration process was just fine, all the things are working and no complains.
Until now: I noticied that I can't make any search on any mailbox.
For example, the command:

get-mailbox -Identity user@keyman .com Search-Mailbox -SearchQuery "kind:email AND (received:(<01/01/2018) OR sent:(<01/01/2018))" -DeleteContent -force

always worked fine on Exchange 2010, but now every time an error happen:

WARNING: The Search-Mailbox cmdlet returns up to 10000 results per mailbox if a search query is specified. To return
more than 10000 results, use the New-MailboxSearch cmdlet or the In-Place eDiscovery & Hold console in the Exchange
Administration Center.
WARNING: An unexpected error has occurred and a Watson dump is being generated: The given key was not present in the
dictionary.
The given key was not present in the dictionary.
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Search-Mailbox], KeyNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.Tasks.Sear
chMailbox
+ PSComputerName : serv-xxx.domain.com

I switch to New-MailboxSearch cmdlet, but the same thing happen.
Anyone can please help?

Hi @Jean Carlos Bormanieri ,

I did a test with the command you provided, and the result is the same.
After double checked this command, i think it is because of the parameter:
(received:(<01/01/2018) OR sent:(<01/01/2018))
Seems like the new version Exchange didn't support this format.

Try using this command and test:

Get-mailbox -Identity user@domain.com | Search-Mailbox -SearchQuery 'Kind:Email AND Sent<01/01/2018 OR Received<01/01/2018' -DeleteContent -force  

Message properties and search operators for In-Place eDiscovery
