the elevated dopamine in the hippocampus is just responsible for better memory in novel environments, the elevation in mood is ostensibly due to connectivity between the striatum and hippocampus which is a bit different mechanism

yes, it does increase the amount of extracellular dopamine and the amount of dopamine neurotransmission (how much dopamine is reaching receptors) but it may not cause a persistent increase in the total amount of dopamine as there are homeostatic mechanisms that decrease dopamine synthesis when extracellular dopamine is elevated and vice versa.

hormones and neurotransmitters overlap but the latter is not a subset of the former
