Was told that IRS was not accepting returns until 1/29 for 2017 and Intuit said it will queue until 1/29/18. Now I get an email saying IRS accepted my return? What?

The IRS will pull test batches from the various tax preparation company servers to test their processes.  Yours seems to be in one of those test batches pulled.

You got lucky.  Congrats.  However, as far as we know, refunds won't be paid until after 1/29 even for the early test returns.
