For how to get e-mails, this should do what you want:
http://www.zenoss.com/community/docs/zenoss-guide/2.4.2/ch02s06.html

For the events that are acked, but then generating a new event, I 
haven't seen that. What version of Zenoss are you running?

Once you move an event to history, if a new one is created, that will 
generate a new event.
