If you install EEUnProtect:

http://www.unna.org/unna/utilites/system_enhancements/EEUnProtect/

It will defeat the copy-protection bit checking on the Newton, so you can
route or file those packages wherever you want.

Or, if you have a PeeCee, use NewtPackageFlags:

http://www.chuma.org/code/newton/pkgflags/

and you can change the copy protection flag of any package before you
install it.
