Susan:
I think many have speculated that part of the "information packet" 
Muggle parents/guardians receive is information about how to send 
mail to their children/charges at Hogwarts.  I particularly liked the 
idea that mail is sent to a 1st location, where perhaps the 
postmaster or postmistress is a witch or wizard or squib, and who 
then forwards the packages & letters on via owl post.

I still agree w/ Kneasy, though, that we have no *evidence* that the 
Dursleys have communicated directly with DD.  Not that it's not 
possible, but just that we haven't seen any evidence that it has 
happened.
