e-file rejected and mailed check with paper filing

My e-file was rejected due so I filed and paid via check.  Today my bank is showing an ACH hold on my account for the amount i sent via check for taxes due.    Is this a duplication of the check?   My understanding is if it was rejected then no $$ left my account electronically.   The check was sent a week ago and is yet to clear.  Concerning though that this ACH hold is an electronic payment and NOT the check and thereby a duplicate payment.   Is it possible that the efile was rejected but the payment still taken electronically?

TurboTax does not get updates on mailed returns. Wait about 4 weeks from when you mail a return and then you can check the status on the IRS site.  IRS.GOV

In the future, if you mail a tax return (or a payment) to the IRS, it is a good idea to use a mailing service that will track it like UPS or certified mail so you will know it was received.
