Typo on follow up email after interview?

I had an interview with a CPA firm today, felt like it went pretty well. I m going for an actuarial internship with them, as they handle pension funds for public employees. Anyway, I sent a follow up email to the four people i interviewed. On one of them, I spelled "truly" as "truely". I only made this mistake on the one, but I m kinda worried now. Will this mean I won t get the job now? Did I just screw myself out of a job that I wanted?

    If only the one typo, I would guess that your qualifications outweigh it. Good for you, though, for so much anxiety over one typo! My tablet does auto-fill-in and re-spells entire words and can turn CPC into OUR or whatever it wants, so I no longer assume that what I wrote is what will be read.
