Mixing is a general term for combining any two or more signals through the process of heterodyning.
Intermod is a specific form of mixing which combines harmonic products of two RF signals: the desired receive signal and an undesired, accidental signal, yielding a series of harmonically related RF byproducts that can impair the receive pass band. I hope I stated this correctly and that it helps to differentiate the two terms adequately.
