Another question I have been pondering along these lines is when 
Voldie possessed Quirrell in the first book, Snape seemed to be a key 
figure blocking him from carrying out his evil intentions.  ( I can't 
give specific examples, as I have loaned my friend to get him 
hooked.)  Wouldn't Voldie have it in for Snape after that.  I take it 
that when he turned double agent for Dumbledore, that the other Death 
Eaters must have found out about it.  Karkaroff at least did because 
when Harry looked in the Pensieve in GoF, he heard Dumbledore vouch 
for Snape in front of Karkaroff.  It all comes down to who Voldie 
meant when he said one will be punished and one will be killed.  I am 
assuming that Snape is the one that would be punished, because 
otherwise, if what Dumbledore sent him to do was to see Voldie, then 
he would have been sending him to his Death, and I am sure the JKR 
would do better than that if she wanted to kill Snape.  So back to 
the original point, isn't Voldie going to find out that Snape ratted 
everyone out?
