I can;t believe IB is that different... see the thread with contact information to "upgrade" your complaint.
Last time I looked, the IB website was very clear on this: you do not earn miles on flights which are operated with a non-OW/IB+ partner even when flown under an IB code.
While the majority of airlines have a different policy, IB is not an isolated case. In *A, BD has the same policy as IB.
