How can I translate it back to @ sign.


hi,

i have the this log from my sms gateway, however, the inverted exclamation mark was sent from the smsc as @.

2008-06-26 17:22:35 SMS request sender:+2342019122 request: 'maruna¡ontng.com,test,Love my test message' file answer: ''
2008-06-26 17:27:17 Receive SMS [SMSC:caxt] [SVC:] [ACT:] [BINF:] [from:+2342019122] [to:+2349191] [flags:-1:0:-1:0:-1] [msg:43:maruna!ontng.com,test,Love my test message] [udh:0:]
2008-06-26 17:27:17 SMS request sender:+23422019122 request: 'maruna!ontng.com,test,'Love my test message'file answer: ''
2008-06-26 17:34:15 Receive SMS [SMSC:caxt] [SVC:] [ACT:] [BINF:] [from:+2342019122] [to:+2349191] [flags:-1:0:-1:0:-1] [msg:43:maruna¡ontng.com,test,Love my test message] [udh:0:]

I have my script that parse the file and extract as below

To: maruna¡ontng.com Subject: test Message: Love my test message sender : 2342010012@xxxxxxxxx


What i want to achieve is to translate the to address back to maruna@xxxxxxxxx instaed of maruna¡ontng.com.

when i checked through, i discover that it is inverted exclamation mark with character code 00A1 from unicode(hex) of latin-1 subset. I need this translated to @, any help will be appreciated


my script is as below

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use File::Tail;
use Mail::Sender;


# the access.log is read and the following, recepient is extracted.

my $name = "/var/log/bulksms/sms_access.log";
my ($mailreci, $mailsubj, @sms, $mailmsg, $mailsend, $sendee, $sender, $msg, $domain);
$domain = 'ontng.com';
open my $file, '<', $name or die "could not open $name: $!";
$file=File::Tail->new(name=>$name, maxinterval=>3, adjustafter=>5);
while (defined($_=$file->read))
{
@sms = split/\[/;
next unless $sms[6]=~/to:\+2349191\]/;
$sendee = $sms[5];
$sendee =~ s/from:\+(\d+)\]/$1/;
$sendee = "$sendee\@$domain";
$msg = $sms[8];
$msg = (split/:/, $msg)[-1];
$msg =~ s/(\w+)\s?\]/$1/;
# i need only sender and $msg
($mailreci, $mailsubj, $mailmsg) = (split/,/, $msg, 3)[0..2];

print "To: $mailreci Subject: $mailsubj Message: $mailmsg sender : $sendee\n";

}
