1) This regex isn't using a logical not, it positively search for
lines that
don't include that character.

^[^@]*$

2) Depending on your task, maybe you could use the :v command
to execute a command on all lines that don't match the pattern @

:help :v

3) For the more general case of inverting patterns, I think this
plugin
"LogiPat" from Dr Chip Campbell may do what you want.
