if you use emacs-19.x you can put
(setq rmail-mail-new-frame t)
in your .emacs file and a new frame will appear when the r,m, or f
commands are used. be sure that point is in the mail window other-
wise you will get the new frame and also it's contents will appear
in another window, usually the bbdb or summary window (at least this is
what happens if i hit r,m, or f from the summary window).
typing C-c C-c to send the message will then delete the frame after
sending out the email of course.
i hope this helps, if you don't use emacs-19.x then sorry i can' help
