Thank you for the report, but the manual is correct.

See bindings.el:

(define-key ctl-x-4-map "m" 'compose-mail-other-window)
(define-key ctl-x-5-map "m" 'compose-mail-other-frame)

Subject:=A0small error in the emacs manual
hi,
there= is a small error in the emacs manual in chapter Sending mail :

C-x = 4 m
Likewise, in another window (compose-mail-other-window).
C-x 5 m<= br> Likewise, but in a new frame (compose-mail-other-frame).

instead

C-x 4 m
Likewise, but in a new frame (compose-mail-o= ther-frame).
C-x 5 m
Likewise, in another window (compose-mail-other-= window).


no=A0 the manual is not correct
C-x 4 m
= compose mail in=A0 new frame not in new window
