Someone else asked this upstream, but don’t you “share” your privileged communications with your (and your lawyer’s) email provider when corresponding without E2E encryption?

A third party can be necessary to facilitate the communication between the client and the attorney. A clearer example was if you needed an interpreter to speak to your lawyer - surely that conversation remains privileged and the third party in the room cannot disclose what was learned?
