Exactly. You can't have Resistant to Toxic Damage, but you can have Resistant to Poison -- in which case, all that matters is knowing whether it's a poison or not that hurt you. Effects which translate directly to injury are allowed to lack a damage type, because they're not "damage," they're injury, and thus don't care about wounding modifiers, etc., like damage does.

That said, toxic damage is definitely poison regardless of the source.

No, there are many things that can cause toxic damage other than poisons.
