It "the following lines of form 1040 have a zero value." Of course they do, I didn't earn income in the US. Why do I have to file by mail? Can I fix this?

It is an IRS rule that you cannot e-file a nontaxable tax return.

You "resolve" the issue by printing and mailing the zero income tax return because as stated above it cannot be e-filed.
