Sorry, it appears the pipeline is faulty as the archive grows.  This
works for me now.

    $ curl -sS ftp://lists.gnu.org/nmh-workers/2017-11 |
    > sed -n '/Sat Nov 18 19:42:55 2017/,/^$/p' |
    > grep '^To:'
    To: nmh-announce: ;, nmh...@no... 
    $

If you download that URL then you will find the start of the whole email
using that date as it's in the From_ line.

There are two addresses.  The first is a group address.  This is
commonly used in the form `undisclosed-recipients: ;'.  The second is a
normal, disclosed, recipient.  RFC 2822 makes very clear this is valid,
and has some handy examples to stress-test parsers.
