Hi,

I have alert rules with actions that send notifications to a Teams channel.  
I have setup a Maintenance Windows for Sundays between 12:00 AM and 05:00 AM to suppress any notifications during this time period.

I have noticed that if an alert becomes active during that time period and is still active after the Maintenance Window ends after 05:00 AM, I will not get a notification. I would expect to get a notification if the alert is still active after the Maintenance Window ends after 05:00 AM.

Is this not possible to get or is this some configuration I have missed?

I'm running 8.9.1

Here is an example of one of my alert rules:

I understand the nature of the feature is exactly to prevent any alerts that happen during the window. The [documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/maintenance-windows.html) is also clear about this:

> Alerts continue to be generated, however notifications are suppressed as follows:
> 
> - When an alert occurs during a maintenance window, there are no notifications. When the alert recovers, there are no notifications—​even if the recovery occurs after the maintenance window ends.
> - When an alert occurs before a maintenance window and recovers during or after the maintenance window, notifications are sent as usual.
