Frédéric, My advice was not to use the tool to see if you configuration was valid, though that is a very useful feature.
The suggestion was to use the 'amtool config route test' command - and provide a set of labels that represent your alert, then the tool will show you which receivers it matches. This is a powerful tool in identifying logical bugs in your configuration like you experienced above.
