The new ticket shows booking classes D and I, both miles eligible, and the ticket also shows my AAdvantage number.

Any good guesses? Will I get miles for these flights? If not automatically, would it pay off to try to retroclaim them?
It is possible but a retro claim sounds a bit too arrogant to me, if the points come, take 'em but don't get too greedy..
