Which manual is that?

MPPE in RFC3078 does not mention flow control.

PPTP flow control is not implemented.  To put it another way, it does
not work, because it is not written, in Linux PPTP.

See http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2637.html section 4.2 if you want to
know what the flow control design is.
