It does not, and I don't think there is such thing as too many items in a side 
bar. If you take a look at the side bar in some of my pages:

http://www.shlomifish.org/me/

You'll see it has much more items and much more high than the W2L mailing 
list. But it's not a problem because it scrolls with the rest of the page.

Even if we have a few items, then can still be cut away because the font is 
too large or whatever.

Sidebars should be populated with all the interesting things people can find 
at the site, and not kept to the minimum due to stupid bad usability 
constraints. HTML Pages are meant to be scrolled in one piece, not cut in the 
middle of the window.
