Looking at the UA MP accrual page for LH, we can surmise you'll earn somewhere between 50%-100%. Not exactly useful.

I'd just phone LH and ask .
Actually that is untrue, we don't know what a T fare booking will translate into on LH and it could easily be a K fare and hence zero accumulation.

My PY flights that connect onto SQ go into a zero accumulation bucket on SQ. Net result is I don't fly SQ connections anymore. Once I hit my AQD I fly other *A carriers now.

If AC/SQ cleared up their fare booking mappings so we could accumulate miles clearly then they would both get more business. Also, those SQ flights aren't full, they could definitely use more customers in Y... which reminds me, my PY ticket doesn't map to a PY seat on connecting Airlines that are Codeshares.
