Information

When enabling the share by mail app with the option send passwords, it is currently possible to untick the checkbox "Send password by mail".
The feature in question does require being able to send passwords by mail, so we should grey out the latter option and force-enable it in the described scenario.

Research direction

Start by reading the context in issue #31005, then locate the share-by-mail password options in the Nextcloud server code. Verify the behavior when the share-by-mail app requires emailed passwords: the “Send password by mail” checkbox should be greyed out and remain enabled.
