Flow approval processes send email notifications from the Automated Process User Email Address specified in Process Automation Settings. If you don't specify this setting, Salesforce looks for an organization-wide email address with a purpose of Default No-Reply Address. If that doesn't exist, Salesforce uses any verified organization-wide email address. If no organization-wide email address exists, Salesforce uses the email address of the user running the flow approval process. If the orchestration run associated with the flow approval process runs in system context without a user, Salesforce doesn't send the email.
To send email from Salesforce, Flow Approval Processes requires domain-level and user-level email verification. Email delivery fails if either the user's email address or the email-sending domain is unverified. See Requirements to Send Email from Salesforce .
