I think that one of the gateway options for ange-ftp might do what you
need.  But I don't know any details, so you'll have to read the docs.
      

I think the smart gateway options, along with a suitable local-server
regexp that considered all servers local except the one that requires
@, would work.
    

I'm not following you.

I couldn't find a local-server variable, and the only smart-gateway
variables don't make sense to me.

  

Sorry, the exact variables I think could be manipulated to make this work are:

ange-ftp-local-host-regexp
ange-ftp-smart-gateway

eg:

(setq ange-ftp-smart-gateway "server-needing-at")
(setq ange-ftp-local-host-regexp "^\\([^s]\\|s[^e]\\|se[^r]\\|ser[^v]\\|serv[^e].....\\)")


I'm not sure if there is a better way of expressing a regular _expression_ that matches everything except your server.
