Same result categories
Both services sort addresses into deliverable, risky, undeliverable and unknown, with reasons like "accepted email", "rejected email", "catch-all" and "role address". If you're switching, your existing rules ("send deliverable, skip the rest") carry over unchanged.
Switching from Emailable
There's nothing to migrate. Export your list, upload it to Mail Exchange, and use the result the same way. If you still have Emailable credits, use them up first. Neither of us expires them.
