It is good to see that everyone has offered you some words of encouragement.  Now let's take a look at the flip side.  It sounds to me like the whole system is the primary problem.  Information that is THAT confidential, simply put, should NOT be email in the first place.  And what exactly does "monitor" email mean in your company?

Perhaps I am a bit of a bleeding-heart humanist, but I try not to rat out people and get them into trouble, even if they have done something incorrect and opened their idiot mouths about it to me.  (Because everyone does something stupid at some point in their lives.)  That girl might get fired; maybe that would make you feel better in the long run?  You could have just as easily informed the bookkeeper to not forward the email without the extra info that it had been opened, and not within earshot of your boss.  That reads to be a very-much-on-purpose action on your part just to get the door open so you could rat the tech girl out.  You could have just as easily emailed the bookkeeper with that info.  

Now you come onto DeskDemon to find supporters because you question your own actions--could it be that you yourself have considered that perhaps you could have handled the situation differently?  Hmmm...

So, that is just how it reads to me, and this is probably what the techie girl will be thinking about it as well.  She made a mistake.  Too bad for her she informed you, of all people, about it.
