What confuses me in all this is Petunia's howler. Dumbledore actually calls her 'Petunia'.

My point...finally....is that I do not think DD would address Petunia in such a way unless he knew her. If they had never met face to face, he would have called her Mrs. Dursley. So the question is 'When and where have Petunia and DD ever met previously.
 
now karyn:
I was of the impression that he sent that howler to make Petunia think Lily sent it. Which would be why he called Petunia by her first name.
