Bridge and iptables postrouting
I have a Linux 3.14 PC with three NICs and a bridge between two of the NICs (eth1 and eth2).
My Question
Why is there no traffic passing through the POSTROUTING rule? FYI, traffic is passing through (forwarded) the bridge just fine. Can someone be kind enough to provide me some pointers to get this working?

Your bridge isn't routing traffic, so there's nothing to go through the POSTROUTING rule.
See the netfilter documentation for bridge-netfilter for details and a method to change this configuration (kernel 3.2.0):
modprobe bridge # Enable bridge-netfilter
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/bridge/bridge-nf-call-iptables

I have the above statement in the system but still no traffic going through the postrouting rule. I am sure that traffic is flowing through the bridge as I am accessing and posting this from the machine attached to the eth2 NIC (LAN facing) of the bridge.
