敬啟者

Explanation:
"To whom it may concern" is a rather traditional way of addressing somebody whose name you do not know or to an unspecified addressee. Therefore, I think the traditional Chinese expression 敬啟者 is the nearest equivalence to it. In simplified Chinese for the mainland China, 尊敬的先生﹝或女士﹞may be used as well.
