Have you noticed that DD always calls people that he knows by their 
first names - Severus, Minnerva, Argus etc.

When DD arrived at Privet Drive in HBP, he refers to Vernon as Mr. 
Dursley, but happily refers to Petunia as.....well, Petunia! DD is an 
incredibly polite man and would not do this unless he has been 
personally introduced to Petunia before. Also, Petunia isn't referred 
to in HBP a great deal, but when she is, her behaviour around DD is 
described as odd!

It certainly seems that at some point Petunia was involved with the 
wizarding world - knows DD, and knows about Voldemort etc.

Any ideas about how this knowledge might be passed to Harry? Personally 
I think she knows something about Snape!
