I think you are looking at it the wrong way, you can keep trying to push a square into a round hole, or you can just put in the minimum effort of creating a different e-mail account just for FFF.
Gmail just kept tripping me, in the end I gave up and took the easy road of creating a non-gmail email address just for this specific purpose. At the start I just created a rule that automatically moved the e-mail from one account to the other in outlook (but oulook sucks too sometimes), so pretty soon I just changed my accounts on AO3 and FF and it's been pretty smooth sailing from there-on out.
You might find the solution but then BAM google changes things up again and you're back at square one.
