I've imported 1099-B transactions.....

......so now I have all the individual sale transactions.  Last year I had to mail form 8453 along with 8949.  If I were to delete the individual transactions that were imported and enter just the 8949 summary information, would that eliminate the need to mail 8453?   I got the impression that this had to be done due to the number of individual transactions.

You have it backwards.

Once you itemize all the SELL details on Form 8949 and e-File there is nothing to mail.

CAUTION: TurboTax is applying its recent undocumented rules and also could be giving you that message wrongly.
