CDB or MySQL. Decide at compile time. I believe you can mix and
match...

Of course.

Supported natively by Mr. Sam's excellent Courier-IMAP package. We use
both IMAP and POP3 at the ISP where I work.

Yep.

qmailadmin, also by Inter7, is a full-featured admin package for
vpopmail.

Ummmm... I think there are three or four that Inter7 recommends and
work with native support for Vpop. There was one written in house here
before I converted to vpop, so I haven't tried any of the others.
For me, another big plus of vpopmail is the outstanding support from
Ken Jones and the rest of the crew at Inter7. On a couple of occasions
I have reported bugs to the list and had patches within six hours.
There are, of course, very active mailing lists for vpopmail and
qmailadmin.
