I cannot help with your needs, but you should not have to jump through
hoops just to get text encoding right, as long as the originating
application puts Unicode text on clipboard. (And I’m pretty convinced
Outlook does.)

If Emacs on Windows takes encoded text from clipboard when Unicode is
available, it’s a bug in Emacs.
