and sorry if I insist on this, but you should try with the simple 
example of regexp

#include <boost/regex.hpp>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

int main()
{
     std::string line;
     boost::regex pat( "^Subject: (Re: |Aw: )*(.*)" );

     while (std::cin)
     {
         std::getline(std::cin, line);
         boost::smatch matches;
         if (boost::regex_match(line, matches, pat))
             std::cout << matches[2] << std::endl;
     }
}

in a single file (mytest.cpp) and compile it manually with the -I and -L

g++ -IH:/matthias/Documents/Dev/CPP/SVN/library/source/boost_1_40_0/ 
mytest.cpp -o mytest 
-LH:/matthias/Documents/Dev/CPP/SVN/library/source/boost_1_40_0/lib 
-lboost_regex

otherwise you might not understand what is going wrong... :)

cheers
