Are there any Christians in church history who taught the Holy Spirit was not God and were not deemed to be heretics?

To be clear, I'm interested to know if there is anyone throughout church history who claimed to be Christian (whether a group, individuals or a notable figure) who taught that *the Holy Spirit is **not** a divine person who is distinct from the Father and the Son* and were still considered to be within the bounds of Christian orthodoxy i.e. not excommunicated or deemed a heretic? Edit/ additional info: When I say "deemed a heretic" I mean, deemed to be a heretic by any church denomination or other group of Christians. ---------- **FYI: I'm a traditional trinitarian Christian. I believe the Holy Spirit is a distinct divine person of our triune God. I am only asking this question because I've encountered people who deny this, and I have become more interested in the topic to defend my belief.**
