Not always. I tried subscribing to the list, but it doesn't seem like it
worked, for some reason -- odd. SourceForge is not always my friend, although
you'd believe it would be hard to go wrong with Mailman...

My first hunch is to put it on the command line (so one could have it in
/etc/default/nfs-common), but I realize that would be confusing (and possibly
different across distributions, and less flexible). I'm a bit short on good
syntax suggestions apart from that, really -- adding a different kind of line
sounds a bit like opening a can of worms syntax-wise...
