Comment (by fkbeoxlxet):

 @leeroy, thanks for your suggestion and this is what I did:

 1. Quit TB.
 2. In TB safe mode, enable Torbirdy, quit.
 3. Delete IMapMail folder.
 4. Start TB, failed. Kill the process.
 5. In TB safe mode, disable Torbirdy, quit.
 6. Start TB, , successful. Quit.
 7. In TB safe mode, enable Torbirdy, quit.
 8. Start TB, failed. Kill the process.

 I think up to this point is what you asked me to do. Out of personal
 curiosity I continue the experiment....

 9. In TB safe mode, disable all extensions except Torbirdy, quit.
 10. Start TB, failed. Kill the process.

 At this point it seems that the issue doesn't nothing with other
 extensions. Does it really caused by the number of accounts? I
 continue....

 11. In TB safe mode, delete the 8 dummy accounts, quit.
 12. Start TB, failed. Kill the process.
 13. In TB safe mode, delete 1 imap account (now 4 left).
 14. Start TB, failed. Kill the process.
 15. In TB safe mode, delete 1 imap account (now 3 left).
 16. Start TB, failed. Kill the process.
 17. In TB safe mode, delete 1 imap account (now 2 left).
 18. Start TB, successful.

 Oh god, number does matter! But why TB can survive with 3 and more imap
 accounts in the first experiment but not in this experiment? I keep
 experimenting....

 19. Enable all extensions. Quit.
 20. Start TB, successful.

 Again, confirmed that other extensions are not the culprit. Number really
 matter?

 21. Add 1 imap account (3 totally), quit.
 22. Start TB, successful, add 1 imap account (4 totally), quit.
 22. Start TB, successful.

 It seems to me that:

 1. If initially there are 3 or more imap accounts, and enable Torbirdy, TB
 cannot start.
 2. If initially there are less than 3 imap accounts, and enable Torbirdy,
 more than 3 imap accounts can be added afterward.

 Maybe I can do a couple more experiments to confirm them later. Please let
 me know if you have any suggestion. Too tire to do any more now. (It is
 almost 5am in my city).
