Automount External HDD – How to Automount External Hard Disk

I have an Intenso 6002560 1TB Memory Station – an external hard disk. This hard disk gets connected via Y-USB cable. When I connect both USB-ends to my Notebook, it gets recognized by my Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS system:

moose@pc07:~$ lsusb
[...]
Bus 002 Device 005: ID 13fd:1840 Initio Corporation 
[...]

and

Disk /dev/sda: 320.1 GB, 320072933376 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

Disk /dev/sdc: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes

/dev/sdc1               1      121601   976759008+   c  W95 FAT32 (LBA)

But it did not get mounted:

moose@pc07:/dev$ mount -l
/dev/sda1 on / type ext4 (rw,errors=remount-ro,user_xattr)
proc on /proc type proc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
none on /sys type sysfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)

gvfs-fuse-daemon on /home/moose/.gvfs type fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon (rw,nosuid,nodev,user=moose)

However, I could mount it manually with

mount -t vfat /dev/sdc1 /mnt/sdc1

as you can see here:

moose@pc07:~$ mount -l
/dev/sda1 on / type ext4 (rw,errors=remount-ro,user_xattr)

none on /var/run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755)
none on /var/lock type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)

Here is a link to a Launchpad question about this problem.

But I would like it to mount automatically. What do I have to do?
