+-------------------------------------------
+
+This post has been rejected because it seems specific to a particular Boost library, yet does not clearly identify which library is involved.
+
+The preferred way to do that is for the library name to appear in square brackets at the beginning of the subject line. For example, "[regex]" or "[filesystem]". The subject line should not begin with "[boost]" as that is added automatically.
+
+See http://www.boost.org/community/policy.html#subject-line
+
+Please correct and resubmit.
+
+Thanks!
+
+-------------------------------------------
+
+This post has been rejected because the subject line is not meaningful.
+
+See http://www.boost.org/community/policy.html#subject-line
+
+Please correct and resubmit.
+
+Thanks!
+
+-------------------------------------------
+
+This post has been rejected because top-posting is not acceptable.
+
+See http://www.boost.org/community/policy.html#quoting
+
+Please correct and resubmit.
+
+Thanks!
+
+-------------------------------------------
+
+This post has been rejected because it is best suited to the Boost Users mailing list rather than the Boost Developers list.
+
+See http://www.boost.org/community/groups.html#users
+
+Please resubmit to the Boost Users list.
+
+Thanks!
+
+-------------------------------------------
+
+This post has been rejected because it looks like you have not done your homework yet. For example, it asks questions that are trivially answered by the Boost web site or your favorite search engine.
+
+It is OK to post newbie questions, but we do expect you to first put some effort into finding answers before asking on the main developers list. If you are new to Boost and open source software, the Boost Users mailing list might be better suited to your needs. See http://www.boost.org/community/groups.html#users
