Dear colleages,

I had a strange case when receiving a strange from one the journal I had sent a paper to. My space story is as follows

I sent my paper to a journal. Then the editor sent the paper the reviewing. I received an email from editor tell me congratulation and I had have to revised according to the minor corrections recommended by the reviewers. I did what are requested and sent modified paper to the editor. But, I surprised by reply from the editor that " your paper is not within the scope of the journal" . The question is why the editor did not reject the paper initially before sending it to the reviewing and avoiding the waste time?

Can I sue him for the this mistake that made me waiting more than one month?

What is your opinion to what I have to do?
