Is anyone aware of whether-or-not Microsoft mail is capable of generating
a return receipt? ...and if so, what is the header syntax for this?

The 'ol standby "Return-Receipt-To" doesn't do diddly.

It can.  Internally it is a header line of "PRIORITY: R".  I haven't
pushed an external message through a gateway and seen it work, but
I suspect it will.  And of course since this header field is also
used for priority of delivery, different gateways may map this
header field differently.
