Using same email address is deliberately asking for problems.

I once got enrolled to a school and they asked my email. Didn't know it was for teams access.

Now, 4 years later I still get to choose wether I want to login in their tenant or mine everytime.

Microsoft solution? Change my email on the personal account.

Not kidding.

That sucks. If your email provider supports +suffixes you may be able to work around it that way.
