Not thinking straight since it is 3 hrs to New Year's.....  But, a "hack" would 
be.....

1,11,21,31,41,51 * * * * /usr/bin/date +%Y-%m-%d\ %H:%M:%S > /tmp/mydate
0,10,20,30,50,50 * * * * journalctl --since="`cat /tmp/mydate`" | mailx 
"Journalctl for last 10 mins" user"

There probably is a better way to get a timestamp from 10 minutes ago.....  And 
I can't now wrap my head around the "relative times" part of the man page.  Too 
much vodka.
