What other email clients can read Zimbra files that I move off the C drive?

I've downloaded ten plus years of email (about 100K emails) from Yahoo using Zimbra Desktop. It did a great job!
I was looking forward to using Zimbra Desktop as an email client but unfortunately it won't work for me due to needing to keep my data files on an external drive. Zimbra Desktop requires them to stay in one location on the C: drive and I don't keep data on my C: drive.
I won't need to use Yahoo servers again for email but I do need to regularly look through ten plus years of email stored locally. My thought is to move the data folders from the Zimbra C: drive to my external drive but, what issues would I run into using another email client to read them? I see Zimbra has created (or downloaded from Yahoo), .msg files but what about proprietary indexes or anything else?
Now I have to start the search all over again for a good email client to use for local files. I'm sorry to say goodbye to Zimbra given that I'd so like to use it but not being allowed a choice on where to put my data files just doesn't work for me.
Thanks for any ideas.
