I am working on OL2007.

I configured a new profile with similar name of some existing profile. I
configured an IMAP account in newly created profile. OL makes it point to
some PST which is already exist. Beacuse of that some of my mail headers are
visible even without entering password.

Outlook automaticlaly WILL create a new PST whenever you create a new IMAP
account. It definitely won't reuse and existing PST. You'd have to supply
evidence to the contrary.
 
I tried it manually.
When i create a new profile with the similar name of an existing profile
(atleast first 6 letter must be same) and configure an IMAP account in this
profile with same settings of previous profile'a IMAP account, it usese
already existing PST file.

Even so, there's no reason to reuse an IMAP PST, since any new PST will match
any previous PST for that account since the data is kept on the server and the
server-side data doesn't change.
