Ecryptfs and mount privilliges

Hi all, first of, I want to say that I am really glad for Fedora, it is a great OS that really lives up to my expatiations.

Know, I do hope I put this question in the right place - My problem is as follows

I use ecryptfs for encryption of my Data files, but when I use the mount command, it allways assk me to use the sudo command, for security reasons, I dont believe its good to keep my user account in the sudoers file list.

Is there a way to give users the rights to use the mount command, maybe by adding the user to a new group? Well unfortunately I do not know how to do this, so I hoped that some of you out there, have a good idea for me

Thanks in advanced, and by the way - I am from Denmark so sorry for any misspellings or bad typings
