mailx problem with multiple cc

I am writing a script to send an email of the result of the process but i cannot make the cc work correctly.

Code:
RECIP="abc@example.com def@example.com"
CC="ghi@example.com jkl@eaxmple.com"
mailx -s "testing" -c $CC $RECIP < inputfile.txt

Result:
Code:
To: abc@example.com; def@example.com; jkl@eaxmple.com
Cc: ghi@example.com
Subject: Testing
< some text here>

The cc is not working correctly on multiple recipient. I tried put the CC inside the double quotes like below but its not sending an e-mail at all.
Code:
mailx -s "testing" -c "$CC" $RECIP < inputfile.txt

Any help is greately appreciated.
