For the conditional "If X occurs, then Y occurs," the conjunctive interpretation is that the expression means "Every event is X and Y'; the biconditional meaning is "If and only if X occurs, then Y occurs"; the conditional meaning is the logician's meaning of "If X occurs, then Y occurs," which implies that any combination of events may occur other than X without Y.
