So correlating is digitally mixing something with a predetermined sequence?
I’ve been struggling to figure out what correlation means and this seems right.
I guess, then, if you have a PSK waveform you might multiply it by something,
starting at various offsets in the signal, to try and decode it?

Yes, pretty much. With the DFT (and the continuous one) you are correlating
the input waveform with harmonically related, complex sinusoids; essentially
for each harmonic you mix it down to DC then sum (integrate). The FFT is
different (I actually don't know how it works, other than it operates on 2^n
samples), but the output is the same.
