While there is no accountant-client privilege under the common law, some communications between an accountant and a client may be privileged under the attorney-client privilege if the accountant is acting as an agent of the attorney.

To be safe put "Attorney-Client Communication", "Privileged and Confidential" or "Attorney Work Product" in the subject of the e-mail, or on privileged documents.

Generally, attorney-client privilege protects only a communication that is (1) between a client and the attorney, (2) made in confidence, and (3) made for the purpose of securing legal advice.
