Post script to Siriusly Snapey Susan re Snape and the MoM:

One more thing: I don't think Snape needed to know exactly what was
happening at the MoM to alert Dumbledore. All he needed was what he
knew from the occlumency plus what Harry told him about Padfoot being
in trouble to put two and two together, find out that Sirius was safe
in Grimmauld Place, and send the other Order members to the MoM. There
was no need for him to be in on the final plan to figure out what to do.

Nevertheless, LV and Malfoy would know that he knew about the overall
plan to steal the prophecy and they would figure that only he would
guess where Harry was going and alert Dumbledore.

So between these two posts, have I answered all your questions? Not
that I necessarily expect you to agree with me, just to understand
where I'm coming from. I don't have all the answers, either, believe me.
