Fourier transform inversion in the Alexiewicz norm

If $f\in L^1({\mathbb R})$ it is proved that $\lim_{S\to\infty}\lVert f-f\ast D_S\rVert=0$, where $D_S(x)=\sin(Sx)/(πx)$ is the Dirichlet kernel and $\lVert f\rVert = \sup_{α<β}|\int_α^βf(x)\,dx|$ is the Alexiewicz norm. This gives a symmetric inversion of the Fourier transform on the real line. An asymmetric inversion is also proved. The results also hold for a measure given by $dF$ where $F$ is a continuous function of bounded variation. Such measures need not be absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure. An example shows there is $f\in L^1({\mathbb R})$ such that $\lim_{S\to\infty} \rVert f-f\ast D_S\lVert_1\neq 0$.
