Earning UA EQMs on TK flight number operated by MH

I'm hoping someone with more nous than I can help with this question....
Having looked online I can't find a conclusive answer.

I am planning on booking a J flight LHR-KUL.
TK have a very competitive price LHR-IST-KUL.
However, the IST-KUL leg is on MH metal.

The UA website is not desperately helpful, so the question I have is will I earn UA miles, particularly EQMs on the IST-KUL leg? (It has a TK flight number)

its not the code share carrier that is important as is the Operating carrier, since MH isnt a *A partner nor a partner of UA I dont see any earning being able to be had

you get nothing on UA.

Check if it is earning with DL.

MH earns RDMs only on DL (for certain fare basis only) but I doubt a TK code shared flight # would earn any DL miles since TK isnt a DL partner. But it doesnt hurt to ask MH to put in a DL acct # and hope it credits somehow
