Yes, that's the idea.
I tried it now, and ack'ing a purple status seems to work ok. I'll see if it stops sending me alerts.
It seems that when I acknowledge a red/yellow alert, the trend chart is not updated during the acknowledgment time period, but resumes after the time period is over (without using any of the data that would've been collected during that time). Is that also expected?
Ack'ing should not have any influence on whether data is collected or not. What matters is if there are any updates - if the host is down, you obviously won't be getting any new reports, and then the graphs won't update.
Also, how can I unacknowledge a host, if I fix a problem before the time that I estimated it would take?
You cannot, but the acknowledge should clear automatically as soon as an OK status arrives.
