Couple of things for you:

this may have been seen a 'vi' but tw=textwidth is a Vim thing.  If you
are unfamiliar with what Vim is, you should check out http://www.vim.org

set   editor="vim -c ':0;/^To: '"

The above goes a little beyond what you were asking for, but you might
like it ;):

it does a ':0' go to top of file, and then '/^To: ', search for first
line that has To: in it at the very beginning.  Whether or not you use
the Mutt option to have the to/cc/etc lines in the editor, that last
part may not be of any use to you.
