No, I don't think your emacs is misconfigured. man-follow and enter will
show you a man page *if* the word the point is sitting on is a command
that there's a man page on. For example, if you were writing a document
and had just typed ls mx man-follow <enter> would give you ls's man
page.
In fact, it works in emacs's man mode if you move point to a word and
hit enter, it'll go look up that man page. Very useful for see also
command x.
As for as I know, in emacs, you can't just type mx man command. You have
to hhit enter after man.
