Yes, you can use a border.
Basically just do
ul.mylist li {
float: left;
border-left: 1px solid black;
margin: 0 0 0 5px;
padding: 0 0 0 5px;
}
And then, you can get rid of the one at the beginner (fence post
effect) by just flagging that item in your markup and doing:
ul.mylist li.first { border: none }
