This information is used independently of the notification settings of the users. The idea is, that the reseller can receive notifications for a customer and react on the received information (for example, when the quota has been reached): 

dn: ou=notifications,uid=4000000,ou=reseller,ou=configuration,ou=wiki,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org

Utilities such as finger or getent access this field to provide additional user information. For a personal account, this entry would consist of givenName and surname, for example Michael Eichenberger. These values are taken from the owners entry (ou=people). For a service account, the attribute sstDisplayName from the corresponding service would be used for the content of this attribute.

For example: 3730083.stoney-wiki.com.

You can use:
~ $ echo "Tüpfelhyänenöhrchen" | iconv -f 'utf-8' -t 'ASCII//TRANSLIT'
which gives you:
Tuepfelhyaenenoehrchen
or:
iconv("UTF-8", "ASCII//TRANSLIT", "Tüpfelhyänenöhrchen")
Please be aware, that some characters don't get converted properly ... For example: Ø and £. The characters $ and € work.
