It clearly says in RotK that the Mouth of Sauron was no wraith, but a living man. So the possibility of him being a Ringwraith is ruled out, or even a possessor of one of the Nine Rings. Looking at his so-called "term of service," I'm thinking that it was quite long, so if he was indeed an eventual possessor of one of the Rings, it would have corrupted him and en-wraithened him (yes, I know I'm making up words) by the time of the meeting with the Captains of the West.
