They are very similar, but there's a bit difference.
境界 is a borderline ON a thing. Usually it is a border which divides a thing into two or more.
境目 is a border BETWEEN two things. It tends to be used for a border to connect two or more things.
e.g.
土地の境界に白い線を引いた。
ブロックとブロックの境目に草が生えた。
And 境目 tends to be used as a single word while 境界 tends to be used in compound words, such as 境界線 or 管理境界.

I'm sorry Crocuta. I did huge mistake at last. so I deleted it.
let me try again please. I'm sorry for bother you.
境界 is an idea. it is invisible.
境目 is a outline or a sign which show you 境 = 境界
境界線 is same as 境目. landmark, line of stones, fence, paint, etc... or a certain number / degree.
境界点 is dot of 境界.
境界面 is surface of 境界.
境 is more commonly and spoken-ish.
目(in here) means line, point.
境界 sounds more technical-ish. it is closer philosophy, law, physics, mathematics, or business.

@bantam don't worry, you've been of great help! the main idea is that 境界=境 <--both are ideas, invisible things (imaginary lines written on maps). 目and 線 here mean the same (line, a visible thing). So if you add the same elements (線=目) to two things that mean the same (境界=境) you'll obtain two words that mean the same 境界線=境目 <-- two visible things (fences, stones etc..).
what do you both think? @mfuji

@Crocuta
I don't think so.
For example, 境目 can be used for a seam in a cloth, but neither 境界 nor 境界線 can't be used for it.
Similarly, 境界 nor 境界線 can't be used for a border of struta.
In other hand, 境界（線） is only used for a military demarcation line, but 境目 can't be used for it.
So, 境界 is same to 境, but 目 is differeent from 線.
目 is a border between different two thing and it connects (seams) them.
線 is a line which divides an object into two or more parts.
