This is what I did, and it worked the first time. Cool. Maybe one day I
will understand the difference of AppleTalk, LocalTalk, EtherTalk, TCP/IP
and
all that. Then again, maybe I won't...

Thanks to everybody who replied!

PS You might or might not know that NCU supports drag and drop of multiple
items. I put SimpleMail, NIE and all the required drivers into the
same folder. All I need to do now to make a brainwiped Newton Ethernet
capable is selecting all files in that folder and dragging them onto
NCU. Takes but two seconds to do so, and while everything is installed,
I can do something else.
