They may range from whether you can or cannot earn mileage to begin with, to the type of mileage (status, elite bonus, plain partner), applicable fares, applicable routes, operating carrier, codeshares, etc.

Very interesting. Yes, you may get miles. I got United Miles by flying Lufthansa several times. However, I will not become Elite with United, at least not with this LH-miles.
Question: What is whith the on-line booking bonus (1,000 miles or so)? For example: I book an AA flight on-line, get 1,000 miles. At check in I ask to change the FF-# to another partner airline. Do I get the 1,000 miles?
