You might want to google the rec.arts.sf.composition newsgroup for "Patrica Wrede" and "the Hat lecture", all about how an author needs to have several hats to wear, and one of them is the secretary hat. :-)
Don't panic. Unless it was F&SF, you probably won't hear back from the other market before you hear from Greg. Give it a week and then email him to ask about the story. If he's accepted it, you can just send the other market a polite note explaining that you thought it had been rejected and sent it out again, but there'd been a mix-up and you're withdrawing it.
