Password reset is affected

I recently noticed that the Forgot password would not work anymore, either on the WP login page or my own. I tracked down the issue to this plugin. If it is active, the Forgot Password redirects to /login page, so it becomes an endless loop.

By deactivating the Maintenance plugin, the redirect is to the password recovery page.

It is not a big deal since i can always deactivate the plugin when i don’t need it, and when i need it and i need to put the site on maintenance mode, nobody should be logging in or resetting passwords anyways, so it is easy to work around.

I still wanted to just let the author know about this little “bug”.
