Find file that are accessed less than 10 minutes in a directory

Hi All,,

I need to find the latest files that are accessed less than 10mins in a particular directory & send those files in an attachment.

Code:
newest=$(ls -lrt | tail -n 1)
uuencode (PATH) "$newest" | mailx -s "Subject" "name@domain.com"

Appreciate your help!

Thanks
