I just downloaded Legal Team eDiscovery Audit Log and in my "Exchange Mailboxes" column I have a few emails listed like this
******@patac.com.cn
lz5ekl@nam .corp.gm.com
I'm trying to find those user info in Azure AD but I can't find them and getting “Resources does not exist or one of its queried references property objects are not present.”. I'm new to the team so does anybody knows what likely be the scenario of this issue?
I’m seeing these emails in my report because most likely Legal Team is doing eDiscovery searches on those users. I would like to see those user info in more detail but I can’t find them in AzureAD and not sure why.
lz5ekl@nam .corp.gm.com = This email is how our internal email domain looks like.
******@patac.com.cn. = This seems like my tenants china subsidiary company domain

I am writing here to confirm with you any update about this thread now.
If the suggestion below helps, please feel free to accept it as an answer which might be beneficial to other community members.
I tried the suggestion below but it taking forever to execute, it's been more than an hour since I run the command but it's still keep running and haven't give me any result/output yet. Is this normal?. any Idea?.
if is an expected behavior, if there exist a lot of AD account in your Azure AD. You can also open a service request to let Office 365 teams help you to check it.

Perhaps those email addresses are secondary SMTP proxy addresses? If so, maybe something like this:
Get-MsolUser |
Where-Object {$_.AlternateEmailAddresses -contains "<the email address>"}
You may have to add the "-All" switch to the Get-MsolUser cmdlet. Depending on the number of users in the directory it may take some time to execute.
Is this normal that it taking forever to execute, it's been more than 2 hour since I run the command but it's still keep running and haven't give me any result/output yet. Is this normal?. any Idea?.
Looking through ALL users in the directory can take quite a while, especially if you have a gazillion users. It's one of the drawbacks of working with an "on-line" directory vs. an "on-prem" directory.
The Get-MsolUser, unfortunately, has no ability to do the search for you, as it would if it had a -Filter parameter. However, the Get-AzureADUser does have a -Filter that should (I think) speed thing sup by returning a (much) smaller data set.
