Automation Designer: Email: How to uncheck greyed out "Use SSL" option?

I am attempting to use the Email capability of Automation Designer in Toad for Oracle version 15.0.97.1178. . The checkbox for Use SSL is greyed out and I cannot change the value in the checkbox. What controls whether that option is checked or not for Use SSL ? What can I do to uncheck that option ? I would like for testing purposes to send emails without complications of SSL

I have attempted attaching a small graphic of what I am asking about following.

Hi Dave,

if FIPS is enabled on your PC, that box is forced to SSL.

We look in the registry, under HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\FIPSAlgorithmPolicy

There is a boolean value "ENABLED" in there.

Thanks for the quick response.
