You need to install a C MPI library to build Boost's C++ MPI library.  
There are several free MPI implementations available, including:

        Open MPI: http://www.open-mpi.org
        LAM/MPI: http://www.lam-mpi.org
        MPICH: http://www.mcs.anl.gov/mpi/mpich

mpi.h is the header for the C and C++ bindings of MPI. There is no  
"mpi.hpp"
