Hi, friends!
I'd like to process e-mails with a script. I use getmail to fetch the
mail in a pop3 account and I can filter messages and send them to my
script using the pipe "|" but I don't know how make a script process a
file. Can you give me some clue?

If you refer to the ASCII value in it's hexadecimal equivalent (i.e.: 'A-Z

Well, I think a regex is your best bet.

$data =~ s/\s+$//;

That will trim all trailing spaces.
Without a regex you could try something like

$_ = $data;

You don't mention which one you are having problems with.
First off though, you should change
$custdir="/uhome/cachet/temp/temp1/cust/";
to
$custdir="/uhome/cachet/temp/temp1/cust";
as you are adding the trailing slash when you open the file.
