 |The patch should have been like the enclosed patch to cope with String. 
 |And, I should support AUTHENTICATE command as well as LOGIN command...

I modified the IMAP-DeleGate to reject AUTHENTICATE command when it is
running with AUTHORIZER restriction.  I confirmed that Thunderbird works
with the modified version, sending AUTHENTICATE first to be rejected,
then retrying with LOGIN with "username" "password" arguments.
The modified version will be uploaded as 9.0.3-pre30.
