Chancie:

Hmm... That's a good point.  Author Weasley also used magic there in (GOF),
as did Dumbledore (HBP), and neither of these instances caused Harry to 
receive letters from the ministry.  Perhaps it has to do with the fact that
both
Author and Tonks are ministry officials??  And Dumbledore is well
Dumbledore...
Hard to say really.  Does anyone have ideas on this?
