Default Question about posts

The original post appears here with a little black dot next to it. The replies appear with either a little circle or a small black square next to it. What is the significance of these 3 indicators? New here and wondering. Thanks all, Tom.

PS. I usually place a check mark when posting for "Send email on followup replies" Last night, this did not work as I have receive NO email but several replies have been post to my posts. ???
