This is a strange bug in the protoTXView which Courier uses. You'll
notice that none of the other applications using protoTXView work
anymore, e.g. works. The only cure is to clear Courier's cache and
reboot the Newton. It seems that you can confuse protoTXView so
profoundly that it simply stops working. (Simon Bell noticed this also
with Mail V/Simple Mail). It is caused by incorrect text data,
something which might happen when a download aborts.
