This changed quite recently. Sorry I do not find the link, but it was in the AT-Newsletter: You can retrocredit miles up until 12 months before your enrolment date. (It may be only for LH flights, maybe somebody has the link.

In addition, I doubt that M&M would credit miles for flights on Air India and Air China without BPs. It will be difficult for M&M to verify your flights on these carriers; there is only a limited co-operation between these carriers and M&M/LH.
Where is the hassle: Just get the copy of the tickets and send them in.
You may be lucky, but with some partners they do need the original Boarding-Passes and it may take some time.
