Our max emails per day per user setting is holding off forgot password emails, which is a problem.

Yes this should definitely be immune to that setting.

As per @zogstrip’s suggestion I exempted all [critical emails](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/86f1cc8c9278513d324662fe181b2f07ff2ad4aa/app/models/email_log.rb#L4-L13) from `max_emails_per_day_per_user` setting.
