Hi

Can you go to sys_user.LIST and in the username field serach by gueste and check the name of the guest user.

May be it is updated as Guest and System instead of Guest.

Do you mean 'Guest' and 'System'?

Guest and System are used by for example Asynchronous Business rules and workflows containing a wait or timeout step.

Yes, that is default behavior.

Look at this Knowledge article for example:

Any reason you are looking into this?

 

Users can be automatically created by system from email if this is set:
