Hmm, we're bumping into each other all over the place, aren't we?
I use QmodemPro, a successor to Qmodem.  It uses QMPRO.xxx instead of
QMODEM.xxx for many of its files, but the following probably applies
anyway.
The BEW file is a list of other files to be uploaded as a batch.  It
gets created a couple of ways when you create such a list.  I suppose
it could get deleted when you upload a single file at a later time,
but the QMpro book doesn't say anything about that.
My system has a QMPRO.BEW from 1995 that never got deleted.  (Until I
researched this answer, I didn't even know it got created!)
Maybe you have your account set up to do batch uploads by default and
Qmodem is telling you there's no list of files to upload?
BTW, c'mon over to Bear Heaven.  There's a Mensa echo here you might
like.
